Description
In the early years of German occupation, Poland is a place of tension and repression. A chance encounter at a Warsaw house party sets in motion a complex web of relationships that will lead to a most unsettling confrontation. A young author becomes embroiled in a dubious business with a swarthy stranger, and their lives are soon disrupted by the arrival of two teenagers on a rural farm. As they interact with the young couple, the author's obsession with their budding sexuality begins to take hold, leading to a series of increasingly charged encounters. As the boundaries between innocence and desire become increasingly blurred, the author's fixation on the teenagers' relationship becomes all-consuming, threatening to upend the fragile balance of their lives.
