When ten-year-old Juliette’s father tragically dies, she is left alone with her mentally disturbed mother. As Juliette comes of age in London during the sixties while struggling to support her mother, she finds a job at London’s Playboy Club as a casino bunny. The adventurous Juliette is soon running with a crowd of famous musicians and actors, many of whom become her lifelong friends. Inevitably, Juliette’s mother renders them homeless, and they leave London with no money for an unknown life in Istanbul, where Juliette eventually runs to Beirut to work as a nightclub singer.
