Eighteen year old Delia comes from a poor family in a small Romanian town. She is the winner of a juice advertising campaign, and wins an expensive car. She goes to Bucharest with her parents to be in a promotional video, which, as proof of the company's seriousness, shows her happiness to the whole country. The job seems to be quite easy: she has to sit behind the steering wheel of a car, drink juice and thank the organizing company. The shooting goes on with the ordinary problems: Delia forgetting the text, the soda not looking good enough for the client, make-up flaking, spotlights breaking, etc. During the frequent shooting breaks, exhausted after the long journey and a nerve-wracking shooting, Delia and her parents begin long talks which eventually turn into ugly arguments.
