Three female friends, at the end of the eighties, share a house in Johannesburg, South Africa. Each of them has her own way to live with apartheid. Thoko is a black teacher and practices non-violent passive resistance. The Afrikaner, Aninka, takes refuge in archaeology in order to avoid the reality. Sophie is a white militant, planting bombs in public places... Each of them respect the other two's ideas, but one of Sophie's bombs will change everything.
