A teen in her later years is taken from her broken home. She goes off, thousands of miles away, overseas to live with distant relatives. Winding up in a British private school, it is the only place where it felt that she would not receive harassment. Through therapy and class work, the hopeful young woman makes a group of friends who change her life, and a boy who defrosts her emotions of happiness and love-two feelings she thought were lost in the past.
