While swimming in the clear blue waters of the Rainbow Hotel, Daniel Benchimol finds a waterproof camera, floating seemingly lost in the sea. He goes on to discover that the camera belongs to Moira, a Mozambican artist famous for a series of photos depicting her dreams. On seeing the images, Daniel realizes that Moira is also the mysterious woman whom he has been dreaming about repeatedly.

The two meet and Daniel becomes involved in an unusual dream experiment with a Brazilian neuroscientist, who's working with Moira on a machine to film and photograph people’s dreams.

Meanwhile, Daniel’s daughter Karinguiri, one of Angola’s young dreamers, is arrested along with six friends for staging a protest during a presidential press conference in Luanda. The group goes on a hunger strike, attracting worldwide press attention, and showing the power of young people when they raise their voices against the regime.
