Synopsis
A lonely and neglected nine-year-old girl who has no friends at school, is indifferent to the sexual teasing of her classmates and is emotionally abandoned by a young mother who spends all her time at work. In search of a family, she kidnaps a three-year-old girl. The older girl, who remains nameless, has the little girl call her "mommy," and convinces her that they are running away to a land where true happiness awaits.
