Steve + Sky is a story about two struggling teenagers who are trying to find their own place in the world. He is a small-time crook recently released from prison and she is a prostitute craving some love and affection. They find each other in an obscure part of Gent.

Sky is a somewhat naive, banana-split loving prostitute. After several chance encounters, they finally officially meet through a mutual acquaintance - Steve's ex cellmate. Their ensuing relationship is anything but smooth as they both struggle to find their place in life. The juxtaposition of the bleached reality of every day life with the bright neon lights of the night reflects the ups and downs of this young couple's stormy love affair.
