15-year-old Pauline commits social suicide in class and in front of her idol, film star Ingvar Lykke, when she accidentally posts a private snap. But instead of dying of shame, she rebels against an ocean of unwritten rules.
Director Marte Hallem takes people back to her youth in Verdal in the 1990s, and tries to understand why so many from her circle died due to overdoses, suicides and traffic accidents.
