Little Bee and Sarah meet during a brutal assault in Nigeria, in which Sarah is asked to make a sacrafice in order to save the life of Little Bee. After the event, Sarah returns to her priviledged life and Sarah is forced to become a stowaway on a cargo ship bound for England. They meet once again on the Sarah's doorstep, where they realize they have to face their past and the present together.
