Madi gej dečko, priča koja ga prati od rođenja pa do tinejdžerskih godina, gde eksperimentiše sa seksualnošću i sopstvenim granicama, pa do dana kada konačno upoznaje svog oca. Film je sačinjen iz tri dela gde se opisuje priča Jean-Christophera, uvodni put od rođenja pa do konačnog ponovnog rođenja. On je dete prostitutke koju je kratko poznavao, a otac ga je napustio. Kao tinejdžer, JC eksperimentiše sa seksualnošću i širi granicu svog identiteta dok konačno ne upozna svog oca o kome je celog života maštao. Film šeta između nasilja i sna- kao dva fantastična sveta. Ovo je misija JC-a da načini svoj životni put, tokom kojeg upoznaje i ubija demone svoje prošlosti.

A young gay boy, from his birth to his teenage years, in which he experiments his sexuality and his own boundaries, to the day he finally meets his father. The film is made up of three parts telling Jean-Christophe’s story, an initiatory journey from birth through to ultimate re-birth. He is the child of a prostitute mother whom we meet briefly, and an absent father. As an adolescent, JC experiments with his sexuality and pushes the very limits of his identity until he finally meets the father he has fantasised about all his life. Moving between violent and dream- like fantasy worlds, JC’s quest is to carve out his own path, meeting and slaying the demons of his past along the way.
