Synopsis

Mylia, a timid 12-year-old child, is about to leave
her native countryside to begin high school.
Lost in this new hostile environment, she copes
as well as she can, sometimes awkwardly,
dealing with the absurdities, discomforts and
small victories of adolescence. Along the way she
encounters Jimmy, a young indigenous outsider
from the neighbouring reserve, who will help her
stand her ground and embrace who she really is.
