CGiii Comment
Sexual taboo loaded with subtext and, perhaps, metaphor.
Powerful and very intense - so be prepared, it is not light fayre...not by any stretch of the imagination.

The(ir) Blurb...
Angelina Maccarone's intense drama deals with the obsessive relationship between a confused teenager and an elder woman. Elsa Seifert successfully works as probation officer, but the relationship to her longtime companion is in trouble since their common daughter moved out. Then she gets to know Jan, a 16-years-old offender, who frankly offers to submit himself sexually to her. Although being shocked in the beginning, Elsa gets more and more attracted by the young man...
