Pour Willem, la vingtaine, le mois de janvier commence par une grosse peine de cœur. Il se retrouve face à cette question : Qui suis-je maintenant, sans mon ex ? Alors qu’il se laisse emporter par les fêtes d’anniversaire, les pistes de danse sombres et les formations de militants pour le climat, il tente de redéfinir qui il veut réellement être.

For twenty-something year old Willem, January begins with a heavy dose of heartbreak. He is confronted with the question: who am I, without my ex? While he gets carried along through birthday parties, dark dancefloors and climate activist trainings he tries to redefine who he actually wants to be.
