Nach einem gewalttätigen Streit mit ihrer Mutter wird Margaret, 35 Jahre alt und seit langem gewalttätig, vor ihrem Prozess mit einer strengen einstweiligen Verfügung belegt: Sie darf drei Monate lang keinen Kontakt zu ihrer Mutter aufnehmen und sich dem Haus der Familie nicht mehr als 100 Meter nähern. Diese Trennung verstärkt jedoch den Wunsch, ihrer Familie näher zu sein, und so kehrt sie jeden Tag an diese unsichtbare und unüberwindbare Grenze zurück.
