Adjusting to a new neighborhood is a challenge for Sandra, a shy reclusive girl. She spends most of her time playing indoors with her younger brother or riding her bike near her house. One day, though, she meets and falls for a handsome boy named Mike. But her precocious classmate Nadja also begins to flirt with Mike. Further complicating her situation is an affair developing between Sandra’s father and Mike’s mother. Her crush, a rival in love and her father’s affair signify Sandra’s maturation into adulthood in this entirely new environment.
