Joz, a young police officer in Rotterdam, is assigned by his boss Lisa to investigate the murder of a prostitute named Maria. During his investigation, he meets Carmen. He falls so deeply in love with her that he breaks up with his fiancée Maryam. However, Carmen is indifferent to this, as she does not want to commit herself. Joz's work also suffers as a result, and he is suspended, with Simon taking over the case. Nevertheless, Joz continues his investigation. He discovers that Carmen's brother Steve, who has been arrested, is innocent, and frees him. Out of jealousy, he attacks Carmen. Carmen's friends arrange for Joz and Steve to flee abroad. Ultimately, it turns out that Lisa committed the murder because her husband Koen (Kurt Rogiers) had been a client of Maria's. She shoots Joz.
