Samir, un jeune immigré maghrébin en situation irrégulière en France, vient de perdre le travail au noir qui lui assurait sa subsistance. Il est abordé par « Miss Mona », un vieux travesti qui habite dans une roulotte — avec son père, également travesti et désormais sénile — et qui gagne sa vie en tirant les cartes et en pratiquant le proxénétisme et de petites escroqueries (lui-même refuse de se prostituer). Son but est de réunir assez d'argent pour se faire opérer et devenir une femme. Samir, quant à lui, voudrait avoir de faux papiers. Sur les conseils de Mona, Samir commence à se prostituer.

Socket is a dark sexual tale of a gay man being drawn into a cult of electricity addicts after being struck by lightning. It is reportedly the first gay sci-fi thriller. However, it is also unique in that it is a film where the sexuality of the four lead characters is inconsequential to the plot.

The film is about the scientist Rosetta Stone (Swinton) who injects her DNA into three Self Replicating Automatons (S.R.A.s). These cyborg clones must habitually venture into the real world in order to obtain a supply of Y chromosome in the form of semen to keep them alive. Unfortunately, their periodic treks into the outside world seem to leave the males they obtain the chromosome from, with a strange virus that overtakes both their bodies and their computers. Unfortunately the lust carries over into the technology leaving the males' world aghast.
