After eleven-year-old Yeliz is rejected by Laurenz, she is flattered by the attention of 16-year-old, good-looking Milo. Her friend Lilly is also pleased, but becomes seriously concerned when Yeliz passes out in the schoolyard. Lilly finds diet pills in Yeliz's possession, which Laurenz has examined. They turn out to be harmful to health and illegal. Laurenz sees Milo selling the pills to girls and learns of a meeting with other dealers at the freight yard. Yeliz also knows about the meeting, but first asks Milo why he is selling illegal, harmful pills. The meeting puts their trust to the test. Disappointed to see Milo at the handover, she confronts him and is taken prisoner. Laurenz has seen everything. After telling his friend Karol to call the police, he wants to save Yeliz, but he is locked in a freight train with her.
