Needle Park Baby
In the spring of 1995, following the shutdown of Needle Park and Zurich’s open drug scene, eleven-year-old Mia and her heroin-dependent mother, Sandrine, are moved to a rural area. As Mia looks after her mother, she also finds solace in her imaginary friend and a group of local teenage outcasts. These new relationships ultimately empower her to defy her abusive mother and seek her own freedom.
