In a cold French winter, a young homeless woman named Mona wanders aimlessly through the countryside and cities, trapped in the spiral of loneliness and abandonment. With no place to take refuge, she is in a constant search for meaning and connection in a world that seems indifferent to her existence. Through a series of fleeting encounters with strangers—from a compassionate farmer to a group of young bohemians—she reveals the fragility of human relationships and the struggle for survival in the margins.
Her life is a collage of moments of despair and flashes of beauty, where hunger and violence contrast with instances of pure poetry. As the story unfolds, the viewer delves into Mona's mind but also confronts the harsh reality of the lives around her: people trapped in routine, often unable to embrace change or empathy. With a raw visual style that reflects the harshness of her life, the story explores the search for freedom and identity in a context that seems to be constantly alienating her.
The film transforms Mona into a symbol of the human desire to live fully, even in the most adverse circumstances. Her journey is both a dream and a nightmare, a trek into the unknown, where the message is clear: human connection is vital, even though it often seems unattainable.
