Abu traveled extensively long to get to Europe. He left home and the beloved ones in search of a better future. He is an African boy, who took refuge in an abandoned building on the outskirts of Turin: the former "Ultimo Impero" nightclub. Abu is alone, and to survive he steals from the junkies who roam around that dilapidated place. He waits for them to be stunned by drugs and empties their pockets like a hyena. But one day they take their revenge and beat him savagely. It would have ended for him, if it weren't for Alba, a fifty-year-old prostitute who uses the parking lot of the Last Empire to find customers. She moves to compassion, heals him and washes him, and together they find, for a few hours, a tenderness that they thought they had lost forever. For a moment she feels like a mother, he briefly goes back to being a son.

But then Abu recovers and knows that he cannot stay there, he has to look for another place, perhaps in France. Their eyes meet in the parking lot, they will never see each other again.
