Seeking refuge from her radical Islamist brother, Samia arrives in France illegally, following the so-called Jasmine Revolution. She discovers a place of hope and danger. She finds refuge with Imed, an acquaintance from her village, and then in a middle-class Parisian household, with Christine, the woman she starts to work for. With Christine and the new world surrounding her, a blend of desire and fear heightens the tension and trips her up on her path to freedom.
