Circumstances have landed Hatim (15) and Kamal (14), two Moroccan-Dutch boys, in child prostitution. At home, the teenage brothers behave like virtuous schoolboys, but meanwhile they are dealing with feelings of shame, blackmail and street aggression. When one of them develops a special bond with one of his regular punters, the situation escalates completely. Disheartening TV drama in which the possibility to escape this merciless world gets smaller and smaller for the siblings.
