In the midst of World War II, a 15-year-old girl named Leyna struggles to find her place in Nazi Germany, where her mixed race makes her an outcast.

Despite the danger, they begin a secret romance that puts their lives at risk. As the war rages on and the Nazi regime becomes more oppressive, Leyna becomes pregnant and is sent to a labor camp.
