Lucy is young, Lucy is damaged, Lucy is pretty and Lucy likes to play. Age only 13 she attempts to get away from her dysfunctional family and her dull teenage life by meeting up with a “Tony age 16”. She meets Tony, indeed, but he's not 16… Lucy's not surprised, maybe she always knew it. So she’s having fun and flirting — everything is okay for her. She wants to be a woman, she wants to be older. But can she handle with that?
