A dark romantic thriller centered on a woman's trauma and her lover's devotion, exploring identity and connection through bodily transformation and disability.

Laura Bartelli is a stripper in a French bar. She retires after a moody landscape architect named Marco Tisserand asks her to abandon her life and share his. However, after her red Volkswagen runs off the road en route to the rendezvous, she ends up scarred and comatose in a hospital. Marco stays at her bedside.
