12-year-old Sofija was supposed to go camping with her friends. However, her grandma takes her to Croatia instead. This is where her sister lives and they haven’t met for ages. Can this summer be saved?
First kiss, making friends, and creating memories for years to come – Sofija has big plans for the coming months. However, her stay in the island of Hvar doesn't promise to be an adventure at first. After all, her grandmother stuffs her with sandwiches and drowns her in sunscreen, embarrassing the girl in front of others. To make matters worse, it's hard to get the internet access here! However, the girl won't forget this holiday for a long time for another reason. When she learns about the existence of a never-before-seen cousin and family secrets come to light, Sofija will realise this very summer how important it is to know her relatives better. This is a humorous cross-generational story bathed in Croatian sunshine.
