A provocative family drama that examines disability, sexuality, and autonomy through the lens of a young woman's awakening and the tensions it creates within her household.

After her mother decided that the eighteen-year-old mentally disabled Dora no longer has to take psychotherapeutic drugs, the young woman begins to blossom. The sedated teenager was never a problem for her surroundings – but new challenges arise when the pleasure-loving young woman discovers her sexuality. The family is threatened to fall apart.
