Noémie, a headstrong 15 years old young girl, has been living in a youth home for the last three years. When her hopes of being taken back by her mother evaporate, Noémie runs away from the home in search of community and freedom. She joins her friend Léa, whom she knows from the home, and who introduces her to a gang of petty delinquents. Noémie soon falls in love with the flamboyant Zach, who turns out to be a pimp. A gifted manipulator who toys with her romantic longings, Zach encourages Noémie to prostitute herself. At first unwilling, Noémie eventually says yes.
