Erika is a music teacher in Vienna living a hermetic, love-hate existence with her overbearing mother, escaping only to visit porn cinemas and peepshows. When she meets clean-cut, charismatic student Walter, Erika’s carefully calibrated lifestyle is threatened. Control trades hands between student and teacher, as Erika’s masochistic tendencies are inflicted upon Walter during a torrid affair.
