What if life were a big empty room to fill however we want?

Fourteen-year-old Viola has a secret linked to the worst day of her life, which she calls The Day I Hit Rock Bottom. Until now she has always spent her summer holidays in the mountains, in a caravan with her beloved grandparents, with her best friend for company. But this year Grandpa is in hospital and Viola has just moved with her parents to a small town in the suburbs, where she doesn’t know anyone and life seems grey even in August. It’s set to be a forgettable summer until the afternoon when everything changes: Viola bumps into a group of boys and girls playing volleyball, who might become her new friends. One of them, the inscrutable and charismatic Indigo, seems to be hiding mysteries, and he soon pushes Viola to challenge the rules, and forces her to overcome her greatest fears.
