Frida would say it was her choice to be the class outsider. All the other kids at school agree - Frida is different. Marius is her peer and does everything he can to be a success. When the two are paired up as study buddies, Marius sees it as another chance to show everyone how great he is, but Frida has no intention of being helped by the class golden boy. Their study sessions become the catalyst for a turbulent relationship, but the fights between them lead to something exciting, challenging, and completely new.
