Fred, diciottenne svedese esuberante e coraggiosa, arriva in citt\u00e0 per frequentare l\u2019ultimo anno di un Istituto Tecnico. Si ritrova ad essere l’unica ragazza in una classe di soli maschi e catalizza l’attenzione di tutti, in particolare quella di tre amici. L’arrivo di Fred sconvolge la loro omogeneit\u00e0, mettendo a dura prova la loro amicizia. Mentre ognuno di loro la desidera segretamente per s\u00e9, Fred vuole essere ammessa nel gruppo, ma le viene chiesto continuamente di sacrificare qualcosa di s\u00e9 per diventare una di loro.<\/p>\n
