DESCRIPTION
The Sydney suburban area, in the neighbourhood of elegant middle-class houses, are located social buildings, and just a little further away from the Kings Cross, a center of nightlife. In the orderly life of Milla, a decent girl enters Moses, a twenty-year-old petty dealer. Everything happens accidentally, impulsively and with the knowledge of her parents, despite their great disagreement with such a turn of events. Milla is terminally ill, and the boy she met opens her up to a completely new, fresh, electrifying experience of life that was not provided to her by violin lessons and the elite school. The clash of social orders and moral norms leads to boundless love and a great will to live.
