The three girls are sentenced to life behind bars in one of the country's poorest women's prisons. Ida quickly realizes that she is surrounded by lies and betrayal, and that no one – not even those closest to her – can be trusted. She is hoping for help from the Norwegian authorities, but instead, help appears from an unexpected source that gives her a chance. A newly established men's magazine has a bold plan to help her escape. Under the protection of a mercenary and with her newborn child in her arms, Ida makes the ultimate choice. She puts her life on the line and embarks on a dangerous escape through the jungles of South America.
