When Ralf traverses the city at night, he gets involved with the escort girls he drives around as little as possible. But when the blonde Kelly gets in his cab, he is caught unawares by her provocative and unpredictable attitude, also because she has a disarming quality. He has to do his very best to keep his distance. Their whole conversation takes place inside the cab, with many close-ups of their faces, while the street lights flash across the windscreen and the city glides by almost invisibly.

In a Dutch high-rise neighbourhood where time seems to have frozen, the 28-year-old Moroccan Shalky has lost his car keys. During the search for his keys, he gets distracted by the daily routine of the neighbourhood and ends up in various adventures. With all sorts and conditions of residents: a slick barber in a garage box, a side-tracked gold digger, a lonely cripple and an old acquaintance. The local residents in this deadpan drama do not have much, but at least they have each other.
