Improvised road movie through the summery woods of Lithuania. Yara and Philippe have all the time in the world for each other on their backpacking adventure. Infinite freedom - life seems so tangible. Their ideas about life however could not be more different. Philippe is a restless free thinker with an insatiable appetite for the meaning of life. His life is fulfilled with journeys. Yara is a self-confident, modest person and dreams of a secure settled life style. A moving incident casts them into a crisis which becomes a severe test for their common path. Home is where the heart is. But where is the heart? IF THE SUN EXPLODES is a journey to discover ourselves.
