15-year-old Noémie has been living in a youth center for three years. When she loses all hope of being taken back by her mother, Noémie runs away in search of freedom and meaning. She joins her friend Léa, a former resident of the centre, who introduces her to her troubled group of friends. She falls for Zach who will soon ask something from her. Will Noémie say yes?
