For many years Nadja was a famous ballet dancer. Since childhood, she trained her body mercilessly. It has now become more and more of an obstacle in life and a source of constant pain. How to align your life after years of self-sacrifice and control? Even her work as a ballet teacher cannot fill this void. In search of a new orientation in life, Nadja returns to her place of origin, to Hanne, her mother. There she meets Mario, her son. Nadja had it as a teenager and left it to be raised by her mother after birth so that she could devote herself entirely to ballet. The two, who have hardly ever met, meet as strangers - and feel physically attracted to each other from the first moment of meeting. Mario also deals intensively with his body, trains it, explores its limits with a carelessness and freedom that is unknown to Nadja and all the more attractive. The two of them gradually allow themselves to be seduced by their mutual attraction and develop an intense, passionate relationship that is stripped of all moral conventions. Their physical encounters become more and more a struggle for their own self and a rediscovery in the other.
