The story takes place in a southern coastal town, once a fishing village and now being transformed into a resort area in the rush of economic development.

Mia, a sixteen year old migrant girl who came from the north with an unknown past, works "off-the-book" at a seaside motel. She is surrounded by people who live by the rule that anything in life is a commodity and can be traded with a price. To her, love is a luxury that she cannot afford.

Wen, a local teenage girl, is having trouble both at home and in school. Her divorced mother spends most nights out dancing, and her father comes to see her only on her birthday. She rebels to get attention, but that only gets her into more trouble.

One night, Wen follows some friends to the motel where Mia works. The event that soon happens will put the two girls to the test on their journey to womanhood.
