Beskrivning

After inexperienced seventeen-year-old Isaac loses his virginity through a dating app - a disappointing yet addictive experience - he spends his final months before university escaping into a dizzying new world of casual sex with forgettable men. This all changes when he meets twenty-eight-year-old Harrison at a party.Isaac is immediately infatuated by the handsome, charismatic artist, but while they grow closer, his sense of self becomes increasingly hazy. Harrison's demands shift constantly, and after Isaac tries everything to prove his worthiness, he must take a hard look at his ideas about love, sex and men, and his relationship with himself.

Recensioner i media

So vivid and real, it brought a thousand memories rushing back... I loved the sheer power of Isaac's emotions, overwhelming him - that lovely, awful, endless battle, asking of your boyfriend: who are you? Which is really asking: who am I?
