Niki and her sister Alice lose their mother in a car accident. Faced with separate foster care situations that will put them in different countries, the girls run away, pursued by a caring social worker named Cecilia. So as not to be found, Niki adopts the name Maya as the two siblings encounter a colorful cross-section of Roman citizens, including a handsome fire-eater named Marc and a dissolute tattoo artist who gives “Maya” a Mohawk. Through this name change, Niki/Maya is hoping to shed her skin and circumstances, but the film delicately presents how this young woman can bring her two distinct identities into a harmonious whole.
