While waiting for her mother to take her to the USA with her, Lilja idles the time away smoking, drinking and having fun with her friend Volodya. In time, the chance of a new life becomes non-existent. After meeting a young man, she finds a plane ticket in her hand along with a new life in Sweden, a job, and an apartment. 

However, all is not what it seems. This is the stark, frank and disturbing vision of the life of a young victim of the underground sex trade.
