The innocent and naive girl is now lured by Celia, the leader of an underground criminal network specializing in exploiting minors.

Lured by money, gifts and sweet promises, April falls into a trap with no way out.

April, in fear, continues. She has to deliver a package in the suburbs, not knowing what is inside. When the police arrived, she panicked and ran towards the forest. Marlon chased after her, shouting “April! I didn’t do anything wrong!” – this scene left the audience breathless.
