Synopsis

Alicja is a newcomer and an outsider at the same time. She is a rather conservative dressed teenaged girl who quickly finds herself mocked by the fashionable girls at school and on the streets. Crude and fearless, this group of fourteen-year-olds soon starts to make Alicja's life a living hell. However, she is slowly invited into the group, undergoing a tough initiation along the way. Soon, she discovers why her new friends look so stylish--they hang around the local malls after school and give strangers casual blow jobs. The money they earn allows them to buy the latest in fashionable jeans and cell phones. Alicja must decide whether or not to become part of the group and be accepted, or go her own way. When she meets a shy, introverted boy, she finds herself in the middle of a power play for her emotions.
