Jonathan Agassi jedan od najpoznatijih porno zvezda u svetu, provodi svoje vreme između Berlina i Izraela. Agassi je dostigao slavu i uspeh zahvaljujući nečemu što je tabu, a sa druge strane zadovoljava milione. Redak i intiman pogled u svet porno industrije i eskorta, kao i na jedinstvenu vezu između majke i sina, koja hrabro redefiniše dobro poznati koncept porodice. Ovo je film o usamljenoj osobi koja teži za ljubavlju i smislom, ali je osuđena na destruktivan način života, shvatajući da ekstremne fantazije za kojima juri u stvari nisu nužno njegove.

Jonathan Agassi, one of the world’s most successful gay porn stars, splits his time between Berlin and Israel. Agassi built his fame and success on what is considered a global taboo, but in fact pleases millions. A rare and intimate look at the world of porn and escorting, as well as on a unique relationship between a mother and son, who courageously redefine familiar family concepts. This is a film about a lonely person who seeks love and meaning, but is condemned to a destructive lifestyle, understanding that the extreme fantasies he chases are not necessarily his own.
