Following a motorbike breakdown, Eva, a hotelier’s daughter, has a chance meeting with Magdalena, a sociologist who works as a dominatrix, “Lady Maria”, in a BDSM studio. Fascinated by Lady Maria’s bizarre world, Eva embarks on a search for her own identity and sexuality and so begins an odyssey through the hidden settings of lust: dominatrix studio, swinger club, striptease bar – meeting characters who are torn, such as Dominik, who wants to recreate the suffering of Jesus, or Mike, who imagines Eva is a tour guide through the world of lust and then falls in love with her, after all. This is a lyrical study of obsession and loneliness, secret lust and public morality.
