Through a series of reconstructions, five survivors from the Utøya terror attacks explain what happened to them and how they survived. A group of young adults are on hand to help them re-enact this experience. The film also captures life outside the studio walls, revealing how the relationship between the survivors, the actors and the film team develops.
