Synopsis

Yannis (15 y.o.) and his mother are moving in, at her boyfriend’s apartment. Yannis starts hanging out with Olga (40 y.o.), a socially secluded hard rock woman who lives in the basement of their apartment building. Simultaneously, he associates with a group of teenagers, the leader of which bullies Olga whenever he sees her. In his need to belong, a new-coming sensitive teenager, is oscillating between the cool gang of the neighborhood and a forty-year-old ‘weird’ lady who is repeatedly bullied by them.
