Maurice compares his attitude towards life to that of an ancient vampire. The film playfully explores this image. What does that convey about the life of a 64-year-old trans man? — Shadow plays, interview texts read in the studio, and carefully researched and staged situations create a multi-faceted portrait and provide space for anger and feelings of liberation.
