Fifteen-year-old Fila and her clique are in the middle of it. Fila is popular amongst her friends, because she is cool, sassy and loud. But so is Gülcan, who makes her a rival to Fila. When Fila falls in love with the 27-years-old drug dealer Artur , she hides their relationship, since Artur is considered a loser by her friends. But Gülcan reveals Fila's secret. Fila makes out with Gülcans secret crush Alex. She thereby not only enrages her friends, but also breaks Arturs heart.
