The story

She has hebephrenia, a form of schizophrenia, and seeks personal happiness, poetry, and her own idea of freedom within a perception of the world that swings between madness and the search for truth.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
Hanna, a young student who at first glance seems like a typical representative of her generation, suffers from a specific form of schizophrenia: hebephrenia. In her own world of perception, swinging between madness and the search for truth, she desperately seeks personal happiness, as well as poetry and her own idea of freedom. Hanna’s image as an upbeat, entirely “normal” woman of today is increasingly overshadowed by her strange reactions, which contrast sharply with her harmonious nature. This discrepancy soon takes on dramatic proportions, ultimately culminating in shrill discord. Hanna’s deterioration in personality becomes increasingly impossible for those around her to ignore.
