Three friends, Kim, Momo and Bella, are targets of bullying at school. One day in the greenhouse that is their only refuge, they find a seed that grows into a mysterious plant overnight. When they decide to taste the nectar from its berries, the last thing they expect is to be transformed into boys. But the magic spell will only last a single night...

This magical gender-bending fairy tale inventively reimagines the coming-of-age story, showing how a moment of self-awareness can suddenly turn your life upside down.
