After her sister Nissi leaves, Mikun has no more bearings. Everything seems hostile to her: the big city, life at school and at home. The fifteen-year-old girl quickly comes to believe that by being less different, less Innu, she too will be able to experience friendship and the first stirrings of love. Between the quest for love and the quest for identity, Envole-toi, Mikun explores the heartbreaks.
