The first part of director Dag Johan Haugerud's trilogy, a drama about two men in heterosexual marriages whose unexpected experiences challenge their perceptions of sexuality, gender, and identity.
One has a sexual encounter with another man, without experiencing it either as an expression of homosexuality or infidelity. The other finds himself in nocturnal dreams where David Bowie sees him as a woman, stirring confusion and leading him to question how much his personality is shaped by the gaze of others.
