In a Moroccan psychiatric ward, three patients and a nurse form an unbreakable bond, taking to the streets at night to confront their inner demons and rediscover the joy of living.

Amal grapples with suicidal thoughts after losing her child, Ibtissam is reeling from a forced arranged marriage, and Rim seeks to escape her traumatic past and protect her younger sister. As they navigate their treatment, they find solace in each other and begin to take control of their lives by sneaking out at night to explore a nearby theme park and celebrate Rim's birthday. Through their shared struggles and newfound friendships, they learn to overcome their confinement and support each other in their quest for freedom and happiness.
