When Astrid (Alison Loman) is 15 years old, her mother (Michelle Pfeiffer) kills her lover who abandons her. Astrid watched her mother be arrested. She has lived a lonely life since her mother was arrested, and at the same time she was adopted. Astrid felt fatherly love from the hostess's boyfriend, but the hostess thought she seduced her boyfriend and shot her. After she recovered, Astrid lived in a nursing home and was often bullied, but since she was shot, she knew that she needed to rely on her own strength to protect herself. In the nursing home, the boy Paul approached Astrid on his own initiative. They all liked to draw. Their relationship was not approved by her mother, who told her that she had to go on on her own, not on men. Later, Astrid was adopted by an actress Claire (Renee Zellweger). Claire cherished Astrid, who had experienced ups and downs, but Astrid's mother was jealous of them, and Claire committed suicide after that meeting. Claire's death dealt a heavy blow to Astrid, who asked to be adopted by a Russian businesswoman, and she became self-degenerate. Then the mother asked Astrid to do it.
