Synopsis:
For Florie, a young woman in prison, the ultramarathon of the island of La Réunion represents an opportunity for redemption from a life marked by abuse and violence. Three days plunged into spectacular nature with the desire to put herself to the test and to win. They are the last moments of freedom before returning to what has become her home.
