Eryka is a documentary filmmaker who has just returned from filming at the Saharawi refugee camps in Africa.

Paul, a bored teenager adrift amidst the pressures and contradictions of modern life, finds himself torn between love, frustration, and money. His turbulent relationship with Natalie—a young woman with firm convictions against sexism and other social injustices—forces him to question the attitudes and prejudices that shape his worldview.
