What holds the attention is the quiet tragedy of Theo, a man too weak to extricate himself from a life that no longer fits him. He exists mostly in fantasy. He has allowed the real world to fade out, visiting it like a ghost gazing into an abyss. In psychology, one might say that Theo has a fantasy-prone personality, yet this is not always a negative.

They carry the weight of dreams they know are probably out of their grasp. The cameraman is a killer addicted underground erotic film. The girl was once pushed into sleazy films to pay the rent: women are killed and women who are used up as sexual objects, in this city women have no voice.
