    • A young lawyer who just finished law school, Nora, 26, has the impression that she doesn’t have any real life experience when she finds herself thrown into her first criminal law case. From her initial meeting with her client in police custody and throughout the investigation, Nora discovers the cruelty of the world that surrounds her private and professional lives. Quickly carried away with the frenzy of her new life, she starts making mistake after mistake, leading her to wonder about her life choices.
