Synopsis:

Leila is a girl, but don’t call her that to her face. Victor, the leader of a tight group of which she is the only girl, sees in her a real challenger to his authority in more ways than one. Whereas Leila thinks she’s one of them, the boys are starting to notice her…changes. Games turn serious, and serious turns unexpectedly sweet in this coming-of-age story of 12-year-olds discovering what really happens when dares are played for real.
