No one knows what cruel twist of fate caused Kumi Leben to be born with a rare medical condition that discolors her skin to an ash gray, branding her a freak of nature. With no prospects and a dim view on life, Kumi wanders the night streets as a prostitute until a strange man in a black suit approaches her with a proposition: to model nude for renowned painter Sebastian King. The revenues she would earn would be enough to get her off the streets for good. Enter Sebastian King, a quiet recluse who hasn't been able to finish a painting in four years. He has nothing nice to say to anyone, especially Kumi. He complains she'd under-developed and 'too young looking, ' earning her the nickname 'Lolita.' Kumi doesn't think much of Sebastian either, but as the two begin their strange partnership the walls around their wounded souls begin to crumble. Can two such damaged people come together? Or will they be destroyed by their own demons...
