The lives of four men intersect briefly in the city of Los Angeles. Takashi, a Japanese hit-man who wakes up from a four-year coma, moves to California to escape mysterious traumatic memories. He strikes an unusual friendship with Blake, the hotel manager who still mourns the loss of his wife to an affair he ended up regretting. Meanwhile, Julio, an illegal immigrant who works at an Indian restaurant to provide for his wife and kid back in Mexico, befriends Guy, a young British backpacker who lives off his estranged father's ATM card and sleeps with any girl who crosses his path.
The film intercuts between the blossoming of these two friendships. Julio and Guy hustle for day-to-day survival and forge dreams of a better future, but after Julio steals Guy’s passport and sells it for a grand, not only their friendship is at stake but also their lives.
