The film's main female character has a long history as a psychiatric patient since a very young age. Years of being bullied as a child and during her early teen years has resulted in a distorted self image. To escape from the pain she cuts herself and suffers from eating disorders. We meet her wandering aimlessly and confused along a road. She is picked up by the police and committed yet again to a psychiatric hospital. Ten years of treatment, and the compassion and kindness of one person in particular, finally leads to her healing.
