In a dilapidated apartment building on the outskirts of the city, nine-year-old Gina not only looks after her little brothers, but also her pregnant mother Gitte, wants to finally turn Gitte's on-off boyfriend into a real father and Gitte's mother into a loving grandmother. Gina fights against hopelessness, neglect and the youth welfare office, for the baby in Gitte's belly and for herself. A female portrait of three generations from the perspective of a child who refuses to accept that fate depends solely on where you are born.
