Irene, a fifteen-year-old girl, is eager to redefine herself as she steps into senior high school. Determined to look and act like the "baddie" she sees in the media, she defies her mother Susan, whose strict upbringing is shaped by painful past experiences. As tensions rise between them, Susan recalls her own turbulent youth and the sacrifices she made for Irene's future. While Irene yearns for freedom, Susan fears the consequences of her daughter’s choices, hoping to protect her from a world that nearly broke her. As Irene pushes away her mother's protective influence, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, but not without facing the challenges that come with her quest for autonomy. Ultimately, both mother and daughter must come to terms with their differences, realizing that love, though complicated, is the foundation of their bond.
