Luis, a motel room boy, finds out the place where he is renting a room is about to be demolished. This sends him hunting for a new place to live with the help of Melba, a prostitute who is a regular client at the motel. Lonely and vulnerable, Luis starts falling for Melba. But giving into his emotions means abandoning his wife, Mercy, who is recuperating from a mental relapse in a mental institution. Torn between his new found love and marital vows, Luis turns his room hunting into an emotional journey that leads to his ultimate dwelling place.
