The real world around us opens up before a teenage schoolchild, brought up in an intelligent family and who has fallen in love with literature from an early age. In this world, classical ideals are daily trampled upon by the obvious vices inherent in the authorities, the school, the media, and the entire society. A barely mature man learns about the misdeeds of his beloved relatives, and a woman, imagined as a divine ideal, uses him as a fleeting specimen of her sexual collection. A beloved classmate cheats on the hero out of revenge. Both, in despair from disappointment, cannot receive any support from the outside world and decide to leave it.
