Dubai today. A privileged young male Arab at odds with his cultural identity and his less fortunate street-smart friend; a disillusioned Indian taxi driver who bears an uncanny resemblance to a famous Bollywood star; and a former Romanian ballet dancer now working as a flight attendant and searching for love and companionship... Their lives are about to collide for better or for worse in a city where ambition, growth and opportunity are encouraged and dreams can still manifest themselves. Even unexpected tragedy and loss can lead to hope and profound transformation.
