Leila is a singer-songwriter with nothing but her voice to accompany her as she wanders from one place to another.


Leila is a singer-songwriter who lives in Brussels. When Antoine, the man she is in love with, suddenly walks out on her for another woman, she leaves for Berlin to start a new life.
Before closing the door of her apartment for the last time, she films herself in a mirror, vowing, one day, to send Antoine the images of her new life. It will be her revenge.
It's a musical road-movie that travels to Brussels, Berlin, Lisbon and Cairo with Leila as our guide. A story of crossing paths, re-learning to live, and opening yourself up to the world.

Antoine will never get to see the images.
