Samir, un jeune immigré maghrébin en situation irrégulière en France, vient de perdre le travail au noir qui lui assurait sa subsistance. Il est abordé par « Miss Mona », un vieux travesti qui habite dans une roulotte — avec son père, également travesti et désormais sénile — et qui gagne sa vie en tirant les cartes et en pratiquant le proxénétisme et de petites escroqueries (lui-même refuse de se prostituer). Son but est de réunir assez d'argent pour se faire opérer et devenir une femme. Samir, quant à lui, voudrait avoir de faux papiers. Sur les conseils de Mona, Samir commence à se prostituer.

This allegorical tale concerns the gap that exists between East and West Los Angeles as Latino kids try to pursue the American Dream. After five years of living in Mexico, an 18-year-old youth returns to Los Angeles with aspirations of becoming a movie star. At the urging of his father, a pimp who sells maps to stars' homes as a cover, the young man turns to hustling as a way to meet Hollywood insiders. Things start to look up when he hooks up with the producer of the popular daytime soap opera Carmel County. However his overbearing father and his mentally unstable mother threaten to get in the way of his dreams.
