In Los Angeles, Emily Brown is a kleptomaniac pill addict who misses her father and attends therapy sessions trying to resolve her compulsion. She has a record in the police for shoplifting, and her mother Teresa is a compulsive shopper. Nick, security guard of Bernstein's Department Store, sees Emily through the security camera and becomes fascinated with her. When he gets into trouble dealing ecstasy, he pressures her to help him rob Bernstein's.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
