Lens, northern France. Chaylla, 23, is trying to free herself from an abusive marriage. She is ready to fight - to obtain custody of her children, to prove what she has suffered. But on the inside, she still hopes to form a family again with her ex-partner. Both a legal battle and an intimate struggle, Chaylla is the story of four years in the life of a young woman whose attempts at emancipation and desire for justice collide with the clutch of dependence.
