Helsinki, 1952. Two former sharpshooters meet as athletes at the XV Summer Olympics: Andre, a handsome French tailor, and courageous Juvven, a Finish Saami working for the Soviet Union as a guard. Their hot fling ends much too soon when both men have to return to their countries.

But neither can forget the other.

Andre takes a chance and embarks on the adventure of a lifetime.

Can their love survive, despite the impenetrable Iron Curtain and with the Gulag prison system firmly in place?
