Before the Angolan Civil War breaks out, Walter decides to immigrate to America, leaving his wife Esther and his young daughter Sylvia behind. It takes 17 years before they reunite in New York City to build a new life together—Walter is now a weathered taxicab driver, Esther a devout Catholic, and Sylvia a teenager. Essentially strangers, the three find it challenging to live in Walter's small one-bedroom apartment. Soon, conflict begins to rear its ugly head.
