Spirited 13-year-old Bianca (Lisa Vanhemelrijck) feels invisible. Her mother is consumed by her little brother’s heart condition, while her father dismisses her as out of control. Everything shifts on a scorching summer day when her favourite actress unexpectedly appears in her living room.
Confused but awakened, Bianca’s vivid imagination takes over as she fights to rebuild the bond with her mother. A gentle story of finding your place and following your dreams.
