In this psychodrama, filmed in Morocco, an international team of urban planners attempt to reconstruct an earthquake-devastated area. The wife of one of the planners is beginning to feel the pressure of her isolated existence. She seldom sees her husband, cannot speak the language, and finds that racial tensions interfere with her ability to get along with the locals. To make matters worse, she learns that her husband has a thing for North African boys. As the tensions build up, first she begins to break down, then she explodes in a fit of anger.
