Our protagonist, Alma, is sent to a cottage in the countryside to recover from an unfortunate episode of mental illness. As a lover of plants, she finds peace tending to the overgrown garden on the property. However, while admiring the large ivy growing across its fence, she discovers a leaf bearing a single written word - hello. Naturally, her father and carer brush it off as nothing but a hallucination - a symptom of her hysteria. Little do they know that this message is very, very real.
