Wally's childhood is increasingly turned upside down by her mother's alcohol addiction. She experiences the excesses and consequences of her addiction at first hand. The eight-year-old tries everything in her power to maintain her life and that of her family. A rollercoaster ride between powerlessness, excessive demands and despair begins. A daily fight for survival.
