Augusta und Julia sind Zwillingsschwestern. Julia ist noch in den letzten Stunden des Juli geboren, Augusta in der Morgendämmerung des ersten August. Obwohl sie gemeinsam auf die Welt kamen, könnten sie unterschiedlicher kaum sein: Augusta sehnt sich in die Ferne, Julia ist zufrieden dort, wo sie ist.

Augusta muss sich neu im Leben zurechtfinden, als ein Mensch, dem viel zu früh eine Hälfte abhandengekommen ist. Doch Augusta, die Libelle, breitet ihre Flügel aus …
