Plots(1)
A young teenager is beaten by his mother for masturbating and runs away from home. Living a life of squalor and confusion, he projects on to his hands the guilt and fear instilled in him by his mother. Caught between wanting to touch and fear of touching, his fetishised hands become the object of repeated acts of self mutilation. He decides that the only way to solve his problem is to visit a touch show where he pays to touch a woman. He has no fear of rejection, as he considers it her job to be touched. As he discovers, however, things are never quite so simple. (Camerimage)
