Cheyenne, a young unemployed journalist whose welfare payments are about to be cut off, decides to leave Paris to live a marginal life in the country. She leaves behind Sonia, the woman she loves. Sonia is a physics and chemistry teacher at a Parisian high school. She tries her best to forget Cheyenne, but it's not easy. How do you reconcile what you want with what you can have? What you think with what you do? Who you love with what you spurn? "Looking for Cheyenne" is a contemporary fable about the precarious states created by modern society, the need for change, and the power of love.
