One evening, Dalva is abruptly taken from her father's house. At first revolted, and not understanding what is happening, she goes on to meet Jayden, a youth worker, and Samia, a strong-willed teenager. A new life seems to open up to Davia, the life of a young girl of her age.

Emmanuelle Nicot graduated from the IAD (Belgium) in 2012 with her short film Rae, which met with considerable success in festivals. In 2016, she made À l'arraché, which was selected for more than 60 festivals, including Premiers Plans, going on to win 17 awards. Emmanuelle is also a casting director, specialised in “wild casting”, a passion which comes out in her own films. Dalva is her first feature, the script of which was developed at the Ateliers d'Angers in 2019.
