A woman has become famous through her posts online and now travels widely to meet the people who adore her. Her life is swallowed by what she calls the portal, whose language and manners she struggles to master, and she cannot shake the feeling that a crowd of voices does her thinking for her. As climate change, money worries, a nameless dictator and loneliness close in, she scrolls and posts ever deeper. Then her mother sends two messages: there is a problem, and she must come at once. The demands of the family's crisis meet the absurd chatter of the portal head on.
