The film tells the story of a wealthy and educated woman, who travels to an unspecified country in search of a cure for the various ills she believes have afflicted her. Upon arriving in the country, she is confronted with the harsh realities of poverty, disease, and political repression, slowly becoming more and more disillusioned with her own privileged existence. Along the way, she meets a series of characters, including a passionate violinist and a stoic farmer, who challenge her assumptions and help her to come to a deeper understanding of her place in the world.
