"The color of longing" begins with a butterfly, which Layla wants to have tattooed. She talks not only about this desire, but also about other small and big dreams, which would probably never come true for her. Layla lives as a Muslim woman in Doha, Qatar - a surreal city between the desert and the sea, which favors wealth and manifests the lucky fantasies of its inhabitants in shopping malls.
