Tretton år gammal söker Sara tillflykt hos den elva år äldre Jesper, som är vän till familjen. Hennes hemförhållanden är trassliga och Sara är ung och skör. Hos Jesper finner hon trygghet, och för första gången upplever hon att någon lyssnar på henne och bryr sig om henne. Tills hon en natt vaknar utan kläder, med honom över sig.
