Five teenagers in the U.S. and Bolivia try to make sense of their sexuality and the complexity of their identity. A poor girl, a rich stud, a university student and a model – nothing in common, except the desire to experience true intimacy. Their stories unfold and overlap as each becomes victim to their own sexual dependencies, self-perceptions and illusions. Thematically structured around issues of femininity, masculinity, virginity, rape and sexuality, each teen struggles to make sense of their own identity, reaching for ideals that represent everything they feel they are supposed to be, but are not.
