Maria, who was forced to leave Ukraine, is seeking a female roommate in Budapest. Talks with potential neighbors about living closely together transition into conversations about the feeling of home and loneliness. When Ukrainian girls visit Maria, the search for a roommate turns into an exchange of personal experiences of the war and displacement.
