Synopsis
Through obsessive sexual encounters with a sixteen-year-old boy, fifty-year-old social worker Elsa discovers the whole extent of the desire she had always repressed. However, it turns out that the boy has just come out of a reform school and that Elsa is his social inclusion tutor. The relationship between the two becomes increasingly ambivalent and sado-masochistic, though not without tenderness and love.
