Do you believe there's another version of yourself in the world? Entering adolescence, Aikka faces many small anxieties... She's both afraid and curious about the attic at the top of her new house, annoyed by her best friend's brother's sarcastic remarks, longing for her long-distance first love, and resentful of her mother's new boyfriend who steals her affection. The joys and sorrows of life adorn the small tower within her heart. So, Aikka wants to find the "other version of herself" that Aunt Zida told her about, hoping that perhaps she won't feel so lonely anymore... Aikka's various anxieties and numerous memories build layer upon layer into a tower of unease. Her chaotic emotions and inner monologues are so much like those of you and me during adolescence. Ultimately, will we all be able to find and accept our "true selves"?
