Toro, whose real name is Piotr, came to Germany 10 years ago. Since then he works as an escort. Currently, he saves up money to return home to Poland with his best friend Victor. Toro wants to restart from there, again as a boxing trainer. Victor has already given up his dreams. His drug addiction drives the sensitive Latin into prostitution. When three small-time criminals are out to get him, Toros and Victors manic environment loses its balance. Their longstanding friendship is put to the test.
