In the poignant coming-of-age film "The Girls at the Station," we follow the lives of Jara, Alex, and Miranda, three girls who have spent their formative years in a juvenile detention center. Isolated from the affection and support that most take for granted, they grapple with their tumultuous pasts while yearning for a sense of belonging. As Jara’s birthday approaches, the girls long to celebrate this special occasion in a way that feels vibrant and full of life; they dream of attending a concert featuring their favorite artist. However, the harsh reality of their circumstances becomes evident when they realize that affording the tickets is an impossible dream, leaving them feeling hopeless and trapped in a cycle of despair.
In a desperate attempt to escape their mundane existence and create a memorable experience for Jara, the trio seeks the guidance of an older girl, a former resident of the center, who promises to help them achieve their dream.
