Summary
Josépha is bored with her life in a dull provincial town.
She lives with her uncle and looks on in envy at the gang of young
people who drive past her house on their motorcycles. She would
do almost anything to join the gang, even give false testimony that
will have an innocent man convicted of the rape and murder of a young
woman...
