The Button and The Book

In Sarajevo, Masha grows up in Tito's Yugoslavia and travels as a 17-year-old with her boyfriend Niko to Dubrovnik, Croatia, where they get engaged. But her life takes a new turn when she meets Pablo, marries him, moves to Chile, has three children and is later subjected to torture under the Pinochet regime. She escapes but must leave the country and returns to Sarajevo with her children. After a political career and a new husband, she experiences the horrors of the war in the 90s. The war ends, and from refugee life in Croatia she returns to war-torn Sarajevo. Several events now intertwine in a mysterious way, and she once more experiences Tilda as a helping spirit, whose secret book she is in possession of.
