Participated in: MIDPOINT Shorts 2011

JAN (56) , a high school social science teacher is facing a late middle age crisis. His marriage falling apart, his job giving him no satisfaction he decides to buy and consume a young girl's virginity. MARYSIA (16) a young music school student who wants to feel grown up and subconsciously challenge her mother decides to sell her first time with a man. Both of them being a bit unfit for the modern World they decide to do something contemporary. Having agreed to meet they choose a hotel where their contract can be settled and consumed. For a bashful reason they are unable to do so. Their next meeting in Jan's place almost turns into a rape but ends with a very honest and open dialogue between two human beings who want to move forward from the point of life they stuck in. Their new 'friendship' leads them to a third meeting in Marysia's flat. Both of them are willing to finalize their deal but their date is interrupted by Marysia's mother. Starting from a mercantile transaction their relationship develops into a situation which perhaps will allow Jan and Marysia to understand that both of them need something quite different from what they are currently looking for.
