The student Tina Pohl observes how her little brother Klaus is blackmailed by their classmate Yogi. Among other things, Klaus is forced to hide a camera in the girls' changing room. Tina learns that Yogi calls Klaus a slave and uses him as such. She offers herself as a slave and in return asks Yogi to leave Klaus alone. Yogi goes into this first. The school's supervisor also notices that something is wrong with Klaus. He tries to persuade Klaus to make a statement to the police. However, the teacher quickly gets into the vortex of violence. At the end of the film he is stabbed to death by Klaus.

criticism

The film-dienst described the film as a "drastic film", the "story of which is told [...] remains static and does not develop". In addition, she would “fictionalize” the event too much “by using an unusually strong visual language and symbolically exaggerating a lot”.
