Abril de 1986. Os efeitos do desastre nuclear de Chernobil são rapidamente sentidos na Europa. Na Romênia, as medidas desesperadas tomadas pelo regime comunista afetaram muitos habitantes do norte do país. Devido aos perigos da radiação, muitas grávidas são forçadas a abortar por métodos improvisados (sob pressão indireta do partido). Irina, a única professora do vilarejo onde mora, já mãe de dois filhos, está sendo fortemente pressionada e precisa tomar uma decisão crucial. Inspirado em uma história real.
Emigration is one of the most pronounced issues faced by the post-communist Romanian society. With a script inspired from the life of the Romanian community in Cyprus, the film tells a painful, personal story in a world in which we use only numbers to talk about emigration, prostitution and suffering, as an unfortunate statistic. Abused by her step father, then driven away from home, Eva, a Romanian teenager, becomes a victim of human trafficking. She ends up prostituting herself in Cyprus. Years later, the young woman creates her own web of relations and becomes a full-fledged "courtesan" for influential men: politicians, diplomats, business people. Her life takes a dramatic turn when she is diagnosed with AIDS.
