Lulu, who grew up without affection from her family, experiences her first sexual encounter at a rock concert when she is fifteen, introduced by Pablo, a family friend. As the years pass, Lulu and Pablo marry, and Pablo builds a secluded and private life for her, shielding her from outside influences. Despite this, Lulu becomes restless with her isolated lifestyle and starts spending time in questionable bars, seeking excitement and risks beyond her controlled environment.
