In Kalastia, books are burning. The new government, led by power-hungry General Malin, is determined to rewrite history. To renowned artist Arda Kalev, the situation seems hopeless. When orders are given to destroy all the art in the National Gallery, including Arda's precious statue Light, Arda must decide if freedom is worth fighting-and dying-for.
