Ellen Van Bemmel lives with her parents and three siblings in an Amsterdam suburb. Her idyllic childhood is suffused with Americana, such as Coca-Cola, potato chips, and the moon landing. But when disaster strikes on her 12th birthday, Ellen's world begins to unravel, and years later, she confronts the ghosts of her childhood.
