A heartbreaking yet inspiring story about Barbara, a schoolgirl who has trouble letting anyone get close to her and who is certainly battling some monsters. The question is, where do they come from and why? This undeniably universal story explores the power we all possess to open up to others and vanquish our demons, by understanding and coming to terms with them.
