This is the story of Pina, who has felt like a stranger all her life, but finally finds her place in the world. We accompany Pina from Switzerland, where she grows up, via England to Israel, back to Switzerland and finally on a journey of a special kind: a shaman's journey. As the granddaughter of Italian immigrants, Pina looks different from other children: she has black hair and darker skin. That's not the only difference: Pina is guileless and sometimes naive and, unlike others, is not just looking out for her own advantage. She is often ostracized, but she also celebrates triumphs. Hard-working and diligent, she achieves everything she sets out to do despite many obstacles. In the end, she also manages to go on a shamanic journey that changes her life.
