A character study of a shallow, self-absorbed woman forced to confront her alienation and emptiness when her privileged life collapses, finding unexpected connection across class boundaries.

Eva is beautiful, irresponsible, self-absorbed and emotionally disconnected. Her life is all about the right clothes, the right people and the right places. Her life is turned upside down when she loses her job and alienates her friends by cheating on her boyfriend. She soon finds herself among "common" people where she makes a surprising new acquaintance.
