    • Synopsis

    • Lala has long thick hair, shiny blacks, and catlike eyes, more adult than her seventeen years.
      Lala will be soon eighteen years old and she will have no more identity: she is confronted with a system which doesn't allow her right to exist to the point of taking her child away. Still illegal in the country she was born and raised in, she will eventually make a daring and devastating choice, shaping her existence into a brand new identity which will take her across Europe to find her very own place in the world.
