Having arrived illegally in Spain, young Senegalese immigrant Bilal is pursued by the police. He manages to escape and hides out in an Andalusian manor house set in an immense garden. The runaway is discovered first by Carmina, the capricious and unpredictable lady of the house, then by the maid, Lupe. Neither woman reveals her discovery to the other. But what first appeared as a refuge quickly becomes Bilal’s prison, and a dangerous game ensues…
