Kora: al final de l'escapada
Kora i Tina han acabat vivint en una barraca a les afores de la ciutat. Kora, mig lloba i mig noia, rememora la seva relació amb l'Àngela violentament truncada i se sent reconfortada per haver començat un nou camí amb la Tina, tot i que les dues sobreviuen com poden. Una nit, una dona d'uns 40 anys, la Lucrècia, les ajuda i els dona refugi a casa seva. Allà coneixen un grup de joves que surten de situacions difícils i que la dona ha acollit. A poc a poc Tina nota coses estranyes que la confrontaran amb el seu passat i l'empenyaran a lluitar per la seva llibertat. Amb la col·laboració de la Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament de Cultura.
