- Synopsis
- Anna, a young delinquent, lives on the fringes of society with her brother Vincent and their friends Cindy and Mirko. Since the violent death of their parents, they have become her only family. The group survives on petty crimes, spending their days aimlessly wandering. Anna's emotional world revolves around Vincent, her one true love. Despite this bond, Anna yearns for recognition. In secret, she keeps a journal, the draft of her first novel.
  
  During a robbery involving Micky, a local gangster, Anna loses her journal, which is found by a literature teacher. He tracks Anna down and offers her the chance to leave the streets and pursue her literary work under his mentorship. Anna is tempted to accept, much to Vincent's dismay, as he doesn't want to see her leave.
  
  One night, in retaliation for the robbery, Micky violently attacks Anna's family. Abandoned, Anna flees her life of crime and seizes the opportunity to integrate into the academic and artistic spheres. However, the transition is brutal: she struggles to find her footing and forge a new identity, missing her brother terribly. Lost and haunted by her past, Anna must find Vincent and take control of her destiny for the first time.
