April is released from prison after having been busted as an illegal sex worker.

Believing he is on his way to Georgia in the United States, he finds himself in a country that offers him no future.

Between longing and survival, in the searing heat of the capital, an extraordinary relationship develops between these two people who live on the margins of society.

在喬治亞黑海沿岸的村莊住著一群看似熟悉彼此的人們。有天,一位村民艾利科被發現在家中自殺,他的孫女因而前來處理後事。在籌辦喪禮的過程中,孫女發現艾利科一段不為人知、不得不由謊言編織而成的悲劇愛情故事。 本片為導演第二部劇情長片。片中的電視新聞報導著宗教保守勢力為反對國際不再恐同日所創立的家庭日,述說著喬治亞對於同志人權的壓迫、社會政治現況與環境問題,並與靜謐的村莊環境形成一大對比。雖然環境是如此不友善,但片中也看見一絲希望。如同導演所說:「本片是對『被遺忘者』致敬,和偏見戰鬥,帶給那些正為自我認同搏鬥的新一代人們力量,並為他們提供一個故事,讓他們想像未來生活的可能性。」
