Synopsis:
Three young girls try to flee from the unemployment in their own city: they arrive in the capital city of Sofia to look for a job and a better future. The three of them try to survive, fighting a hostile reality which threatens to break their innocent and bright ideas of life, imposing on them its vicious morality. One of the girls does break and becomes the love-toy of a pimp. Prompted by her betrayal, the second one gets involved into a love triangle and attempts suicide. The third girl puts up a struggle for her closest friends’ redemption. A story of love, friendship and courage.
