Une petite fille de sept ans quitte une famille pauvre, pour aller vivre auprès de sa riche marraine. Éblouie par cette richesse, l’attrait du neuf, elle part sans regret, heureuse de cet événement qui va changer sa vie et faire d’elle, peut-être, une sorte de princesse de contes de fées. Mais elle ne rencontrera que principes rigides chez cette femme au cœur sec, qui lui fera sentir douloureusement sa pauvreté. Line en souffrira et, de vexations en vexations, la révolte naîtra en elle. Elle compare la vie familiale de tendresse et d’amour qu’elle avait chez ses parents, à celle qu’elle mène chez cette personne qui ne l’aime pas et qui, constamment, se met en travers de la vie dont elle rêve. Elle retournera définitivement chez ses parents, mais qu’adviendra-t-il de Line ? Quel sera — replacée dans son cadre d’origine — son destin ?
