Travelling in a cargo truck, a group of Kurdish adults and children try to illegally cross into Great Britain. Kept in darkness, they are in constant fear of being discovered. At the same time, in France, a young executive supervises the relocation of a factory to a less expensive country. Living in a small hotel room in Hungary and unable to speak the local language, he suffers from intense loneliness. Meanwhile, a female student travels across Europe, using a digital camera to document her journey. She captures images people who have been beaten down by the system. Arriving in Budapest, she meets a young Polish woman who invites her to be her guest. All these travellers from different countries inhabit the same places but never meet.
