Paula, a 32-year-old actress, unexpectedly stops a robbery at a café and appears on the TV and newspapers. But as the days go by and her fame fades away, we begin to see a woman who works as something else and has moved away from her profession. As Paula struggles to assume her situation, she will get in touch with some past relations. Confronting them will put her back on the scene.
