Film Synopsis

Emma, 16, has a mother who is truly abhorrent, but she imagines her to be the romantic heroine in a 19th century love story.  She is in love with a boy of her own age who, in her dreams, becomes a Prince Charming who whisks her off to Tangier on his scooter.  Nurturing such wild fantasies as these, Emma soon grows up, so that she can live at last.
