Karol is a teenager like any other – young, athletic, on the cusp of life. Things change after he becomes an accidental witness to a murder. Driven by curiosity, he begins to follow the murderer to eventually discover “curious needs” of his own, the existence of which he had only just sensed so far, but never had the courage or opportunity to name.
