15-year-old Diana wants to present an art project for a school performance, consisting of video documentaries and a poetry slam. The theme is women and their everyday lives, or rather how they deal with their everyday problems. She documents not only girls and women in her environment, but also her female role models, her mother and grandmother. The three have been living together since Doloris separated from Diana's violent father. Diana's mother wants to move in with her long-distance boyfriend to give Diana and herself a better life and a real family. Diana is not particularly popular at school and is very withdrawn. When she starts filming at school and in everyday life for her school project, she repeatedly witnesses assaults on young girls and women. However, the women seem to have long since accepted such assaults as normal. Diana wants to break this narrative with her art project, show reality, and reveal one of her biggest secrets.

Cry Baby, a strong and sensitive girl, is sent off to a disturbing sleepaway school that’s hidden underneath a grandiose façade. Luckily, she has a sweet and unapologetic best friend who sticks up for her when she gets bullied by the other students whose brains are under control by the Principal and his wicked staff. With the help of the magical friends they meet along the way, as well as an Angelic Spirit Guide, they are able to gain the strength they need to fight off the school’s belligerent patriarchal conditioning.

15-year-old Mia faces an overwhelming transformation which puts her entire existence into question. Her body is changing radically, and despite desperate attempts to halt the process, Mia is soon forced to accept that nature is far more powerful than she is.
