A little too over-stated.

The(ir) Blurb...

Shimi is a story about Keely, a lonely 16 year old teenager who's been rudely treated by SARAH (18), a girl from her ballet course. On a strange moment she meets MAIRI (20), an eccentric and attractive girl who's the complete opposite. The new friendship between the two starts to get a frighting dimension when Keely is getting obsessed with the soiled lifestyle of Mairi. Mairi seems not to be as good as she occurs. What happens when Keely gets exposed to a world full of drugs and prostitution?
