Escaping from China, North Korean defector Loh Kiwan sets out to fulfill his mother's dying wish: to find a place where he can truly own his name and live on his own terms. He travels to Belgium to seek refugee status but ends up being in limbo with no means to make a living nor put a roof over his head. Marie, who used to represent the Belgian national shooting team and is now battling her inner demons, chances upon an exhausted Kiwan and steals his wallet. The two end up in a heated confrontation, and only when Marie realizes that the wallet is the only memento left by Kiwan's mother do they start to be drawn to each other over their shared experiences and emotions.
