Three sisters stand united in a chaotic yet loving everyday life without parents. All they need is each other, their friends, and pastimes like breaking into unguarded pool villas. But when social services sense trouble, Laura is forced to seek help outside the safety of their close-knit group. The clock is ticking, and it becomes increasingly clear that life is about to change forever in a world where freedom and despair go hand in hand.
