27-year-old Zineb is a repeat offender behind bars. When she learns that her wild and fanciful 9-year-old daughter, Inès, has been expelled from school and sent to a children's home, she escapes from prison, kidnaps her daughter, and heads south. On the road, she holds up a truck driven by the young Asma, and takes her hostage. The trio soon has the police on their tail, thus starting a long escape that takes them across the rugged red terrain and flower-filled valleys of the Atlas to finally reach the Atlantic coast.
