What is it like to be a child and face abuse and judgment from peers or even strangers? Online bullying (cyberbullying) is an increasingly common form of bullying, found in chat rooms, on websites and platforms of all kinds, but also in offline interaction.
Rosalie is a 13-year-old victim of bullying and cyberbullying. Over time, her self-confidence has decreased causing her to isolate herself more and more. Now she no longer feels comfortable even in her room. She knows that those who want to reach her can do so through the internet and text messages. She goes on an adventure where she interacts with people online who have been through similar things and with them she tries to heal the wounds she has. Will she succeed?
