Eric and Christina both work at the night club known as Exotica. They share a complex history that dates back many years. Francis, tax auditor by day, and Exotica patron by night, relies on the club to fill emptiness left in his life by his absent family. Zoe the pregnant owner and operator of Exotica, runs the club as she runs her life- marshalled and emotionless. And, Thomas, the pet shop owner, is infatuated with exotic animals and exotic people.
