At the age of 15, one is particularly vulnerable – and peers often shamelessly take advantage of that. The shy Elisa knows all too well about being bullied, and is thus all the more attracted to the self-assured Anthea. With their cell phone cameras, the two friends initially record only their everyday lives – but what starts out as playful soon turns all too serious. They secretly film the classmates that have targeted Elisa and soon reverse the mobbing situation, which then takes on a life of its own.
