Description:
This is the story of a young actor Meno. In the days, he works on multiple film casting gigs and tries to make ends meet; during the nights, he either sleeps in his car, which has become his new home after he got evicted by his landlord, or is called over by a producer who promises him better positions in exchange for sex. In such a deeply split life, the only thing that brings him consolation is a black cat that follows him wherever he goes. However, as the producer’s sexual desire grows incessantly, the fatigue of living a hard life while acting out his positive persona drives the actor to his edge. After yet another sex, the actor finds out that the producer is secretly filming their sexes for his own fetish. The actor finally breaks down. Following the black cat as if he is captivated by its gaze, the actor walks out of the motel in his nudity.
