 Painter Kai Merilä (Melasniemi) wakes up from a 7-month coma after being in a road accident while DUI. Suffering from amnesia, he returns to his villa in the Finnish countryside, where the accident took place the previous year. Every villager remembers the painter - he remembers no one. Merilä receives an assignment from one Mrs. Sundel (Mauranen) to paint a portrait of their daughter Nina (Härkönen), who has gone missing. The horrible memories from his past come back to him little by little as he paints Nina s portrait using only photographs taken of her.
