A long love story that, like any love and sex story that refuses to stop being one, becomes more complex and enveloping. Still immersed in the fears of a childhood lacking affection, Lulu, a fifteen-year-old girl, succumbs to the attraction exerted on her by a young man, a family friend, whom she had previously only vaguely desired. After this first experience, Lulu, an eternal child, feeds for years, in solitude, the ghost of that man who ends up accepting the challenge of indefinitely prolonging, in their peculiar sexual relationship, the amorous game of childhood. He creates for her a world apart, a private universe where time loses value. But the risky spell of living outside reality breaks abruptly one day, when Lulu, now thirty years old, plunges, defenseless but feverishly, into the hell of dangerous desires.
