SHAHAR (17) studies in an alternative educational framework for girls at risk. Perry (19),a female teacher, arrives on the scene.

SHAHAR (17) lives in a tough neighborhood in Bat-Yam. Her parents are divorced; her father is hospitalized in a mental institution. Her mother has both boyfriend issues and drinking problems; Caring for her sister MORAN (12) is the most important thing in Shahar's life. She wants Moran to have a better childhood than the one she herself had experienced. Shahar attends "Gila's House", an alternative educational framework for at-risk girls. PERRY (19), a new teacher-soldier, arrives there as a counselor. Perry is an unconventional counselor, charismatic and enigmatic, and a strong attraction-repulsion dynamic is established between Shahar and her.
