The film focuses on a young brother and sister who are forced to share their incarcerated mother's prison cell by night, but roam the streets during the day. For they are homeless; only allowed to stay within the prison's confines after dark, the children are not permitted there during the day. Fed up with having to fend for themselves, and in a desperate bid to get locked up on a more permanent basis, the siblings concoct a cunning plan; using American cinema as a guide, they begin to perform robberies on the streets of Kabul.
