Life changes for teenager Renée when a girl disappears from her school.

synopsis

En

Thirteen-year-old Renée is in school one day when class is interrupted. A girl from another class is missing. When she gets home, she expects to see her brother, but he is not there. In her room, she watches images of the policeman who visited the school on social media. She lets the day sink in. The next morning, her mother says she cannot ride her bike to school but must take the bus from now on. A few months pass and her childlike happiness falls away. For the first time, she looks differently at her surroundings and what it means to grow up.
