There he meets the beautiful and talented Nevo, who awakens subconscious desires in him.However, their swimming coach does not believe in friendship between competitors. Warned to stay away fromNevo, Erez is still too attracted to him. A chamber drama about hiding and finding oneself in the world of elite sports, where the main character has to learn to love himself. After all, the only weapon effective against homophobia is self-acceptance.
