Mia accepts a position with a small crew that restores structures in the outer reaches of space, and the quiet work creates time to reflect on her high school days and her first love. As they traverse the universe, Mia grows to better understand her new friends and herself -- emboldening them to explore dangerous space in search of closure. With stunning colors, striking vistas, and boundless creativity, Walden welcomes us into Mia's beautiful world and asks us to reflect on loneliness, love, and finding ourselves.
