During the 6 months she is awaiting trial for having stabbed her caring but cruelly overbearing mother, 15-year-old Manon is placed in a detention center. There, through the people she meets and the struggles she faces, Manon will find the path towards redemption or...not.

Manon is now 20 years old, holds a degree in mechanics, and has a steady boyfriend...who won't be steady for long. Juggling her work and love life, Manon dreams and frets, moves forward, makes mistakes, repairs them, falls down, but always manages to get back on her feet, thanks to a strong will that occasionally turns to violence when facing injustice and abuse.
