Leyla means night
Leyla (15) is caught in an unhealthy relationship with "Big", an unpredictable man who beats her and treats her like a princess alternatively. By night she scars walls with graffity with him and by day she plays the doll for him.
After a fight on her birthday she unexpectedly meets Moe. He thinks Leyla is more beautiful without make-up. Later, Leyla takes him to her favorite place. Up there above the rails a unique friendship slowly begins to unfold.
