Aïcha is a troubled teenage girl who cannot forgive her mother for kicking out the stepfather she adored. Aïcha longs for him to come back and take her away.

Baz wants to help this lost little girl, but she wants much more from him, and is ready to do anything to get it.

VIBE

This film feels like a raw, uncomfortable dive into adolescent desperation. It’s a melancholic and intense portrayal of a young girl’s yearning for escape and a dangerous, all-consuming infatuation that feels both tragic and unsettling.
