Fille d'un pasteur protestant pieux et austère, la petite Joséphine (sept ans) vit dans une maison cossue au milieu d'une nature riante, dans la campagne suédoise. Mais elle s'ennuie, car ses parents ne s'occupent guère d'elle et elle n'a personne avec qui jouer. Elle passe donc son temps à rêver toute seule, à se poser une foule de questions sans réponses et à penser à ce Dieu dont elle entend si souvent parler et qu'elle imagine aussi impressionnant et aussi inaccessible que son père.
