Deux jeunes femmes suisses dans la vingtaine, de milieux très différents (l'une est étudiante en histoire et l'autre, commis) se rencontrent pendant qu'elles font de l'auto-stop. Elles voyagent dans la campagne suisse, cherchant une pause de leurs vies et leurs relations insatisfaisantes. Lorsque l'argent qu'elles dépensent en restaurants et hôtels est épuisé, elles couchent dans des étables et quémandent. Elles gardent un pistolet trouvé dans une auto, ce qui fait d'elles des voleuses. Elles constatent enfin qu'il n'y a pas de voie de retour vers leur ancien monde. Le titre vient du nom que l'une des actrices prétend avoir quand on lui pose la question dans le film
