Daniel, a young man from the provinces, moves from one gay subculture to the next. His adventures begin on Berlin's streets, where the shy brunette Daniel meets the blonde Clemens, who invites him home for coffee and offers him a place to stay. Daniel soon finds himself living with Clemens and believing he has found the love of his life. The two attempt to emulate a bourgeois marriage and lifestyle. After four months of boredom, Daniel is cruised by a rich older man who entices him to move into his villa, where he meets a group of older gays who fawn over him and are pretentious in their appreciations of fine art and classical music.
