In a loveless relationship, Zoé ditches her faceless boyfriend in a cheap motel room and sets off north without a penny to her name.  She hitch-hikes, pilfers a meal from a gas station, encounters strangers who could be her next ride or a passing glimpse, ambling toward some unknown destination.  At the end of her pilgrimage, Zoé reaches the English Channel; on the ferry a woman mysteriously disappears.  A new coat gives Zoé a new identity, but even in a new country she's not quite sure she's escaped herself.
