As protestors take to the streets in a wild riot, a young woman, Lena, escapes the misery of her patriarchal family. She meets Stefan who came to take away her beloved piano as a settlement of her brother's debt and starts flirting with him out of spite for her family. However, she soon realises that, despite obvious ideological differences, they share the desire to be accepted, to be free. As the night carries them on the waves of the city in turmoil, they search for a way forward. The two join the protest, where the situation escalates. As the tear gas is deployed against the protestors, and bricks and rocks fly through the air, a man hits the ground, his head bleeding. Stefan realizes it was him who struck the police officer with a rock. The lovers must flee to nature – the only possible shelter - he, in search of redemption, she, in search of her heart.
