Ruth’s life changes the day she stands in line with her mother to buy a new school uniform – and sees another girl and her aunt turned away, unable to afford one. The girl, Maria, meets Ruth’s stare without shame, and from that moment, Ruth can’t stop thinking about her.When school begins, and they turn out to be the only two girls attending on scholarship, Ruth musters the courage to introduce herself.

Their lives continue to converge and diverge – until they meet in one final and momentous confrontation.
