On the evening of her 14th birthday, Beatrice tumbles in her older sister's world. For the first time, she is confronted with Fanny's reality. Having often been excluded, Beatrice's social life is non-existent. Therefor, she follows her older sister's way of life, which is to use her body as a way of being in control in this harsh world. Having grew up in a hyper-sexualities world with no good role models, the girls try the best they can to carry on from childhood to adulthood. Together, on this one night, they will understand that they can only rely on themselves and hope for a better tomorrow.
