Antonio Rezza and Flavia Mastrella are two artists that use their bodies like objects. Their works are exaltations of the object compared to the subject. The interpreter is more important than the author. The role of artistic expression is to represent what is not there. Cinema is an improper weapon because it is in the wrong hands. The solution would be - according to the two artists - for cinema as well as all art to be managed by those who have imagination and who are not down to earth.
Vittorio, an American novelist teaching in Rome, meets the beautiful but damaged Bianca and they rapidly fall into an urgent, tempestuous affair. He's hesitant over their relationship since she seems to thrive on conflict and is constantly baiting him into physical altercation. Bianca gives Vittorio an exquisite leather belt as a gift; he knows immediately that she wants him to whip her with it. Driven by his craving for her, Vittorio complies to Bianca's desire. Their relationship escalates into a dark realm of S&M which becomes more and more self-destructive.
