Shahar, a beautiful and vigilant girl, lives in a tough Bat Yam neighborhood with her dysfunctional family. Her divorced father is in a mental institution, and her alcoholic mother dreams of remarriage. Shahar essentially raises her younger sister Moran (12) alone. Expelled from regular school, she now studies at "Beit Gila," an alternative school for at-risk girls. Perry, a new soldier teacher, arrives as an unconventional and enigmatic guide. Their intense relationship, marked by attraction and repulsion, evolves into a profound, transformative love.
