Overview

One evening, Gabriel throws a party with his friends to celebrate the conviction of the man who abused him as a child. With Lucien by his side, he turns the party into a flirty dance floor in an attempt to escape his past. Caught between Lucien’s gentleness and his own need for desire, Gabriel unwittingly reenacts the confusion between affection and control.
