Synopsis
The film follows the lives of four distinct female characters: a little country girl, caught up in a tragic game of hide-and-seek; a promiscuous teenage runaway desperate to escape her grim family life; a young woman who moves to Paris and has a brush with disaster; and finally an adult woman who leads an uneventful life but has more than a few secrets of her own. Soon, it becomes apparent that these four characters are but one and the same.
