Synopsis

Without a penny in her pocket and on the run from her past, Agnieszka leaves her native Poland in the middle of the night. In Munich she meets the former ballet star Aunt Lisbeth, who has now faded entirely from the public eye. She gives the anchorless Agnieszka sanctuary and a job: she starts to work for Aunt Lisbeth as a dominatrix. When Agnieszka meets the 16-year-old Manuel, falling undyingly in love with him, developments pile up.
