Synopsis:

Taiwo hopes to make a life for herself and her twin sister in the faraway city of Dublin. Fearing what may await her on her arrival, Taiwo makes a desperate bid for freedom from her Dublin smugglers. However she is hunted down by a petty thief and conman, Keely, who on kidnapping her, decides to tell nobody of his catch and brings the girl home. An unlikely and at times naive relationship develops between a victim and a perpetrator that is based on economic necessity and ultimately emotional fragility.

In the modern European city of Dublin comes another new recruit to the sex trade. Trafficked illegally in the back of a van, young African girl Taiwo, believes she is about to start a new life free from the oppression at home. But she soon finds that she is trapped in the dark seedy underworld of vice and drugs. She meets small time hood Keely, who unwittingly seals both their fates when he steals her from the gangsters she was supposed to work for.

A young African immigrant woman is brought to Dublin illegally. She hopes to make a new life for herself but finds herself nearly enforced into prostitution before managing to escape. However, she is back drawn into the underworld of vice and drugs in order to survive.
