The film depicts three attempts to correct the protagonist’s scoliosis. The first uses an ancient medieval torture device, the second involves wearing angel wings in an attempt to fly, and the third, more extreme, consists of throwing herself under a car to straighten her back. The entire process is accompanied by a mentor who provides precise explanations on how to proceed.
