Desiree feels like a revolutionary and has a list of disruptive female figures that she continually updates. She loves making out with boyfriend Lake whom she considers a saint in that he is dedicated to caring for others including his mother, a wayward and immature woman.
Unexpectedly, Lake discovers a strong attraction to older men and, on going to work in a nursing home, falls in love with Mr. Peabody. Little surprised by this attraction Lake does not hesitate to cultivate it, thus beginning a peculiar journey into a world inhabited by endless taboos.
An unusual, ironic and funny comedy that seeks to dismantle prejudices about the themes of beauty and old age.
Can an old body attract the fantasies of a young person? How unaccustomed are we to thinking an old, wrinkled body beautiful? How unthinkable can it seem that a handsome, young boy would pass for a man who is 82 years old?
Are beauty stereotypes induced? And can physical attraction disregard these stereotypes?
A film that with great lightness and intensity succeeds in confronting us with the representation of our taboos; it succeeds in surprising us with a delicacy not exempt from winks, through the revolutionary vision of a teenager who does not hesitate to reverse and upset the plans established by a culture that predominantly wears the mask of nature.
