Sexual contents are present, some of them are disturbing, but no graphic details are ever shown. The theme of sadomasochism is faced.
A young man and a young woman are seen having sex twice throughout the movie. In the first scene, they are on a couch, kissing and touching each other: the woman's bare breasts and nipples are seen. She is on top, unzips his pants and starts to have sex with him, but after a while he stops her. In the second scene, they are kissing and making love on a bed; this scene is brief and romantic, and nothing is seen (they are both semi-covered with the sheets).
Two or three scenes take place in a sex shop, where plenty of bondage outfits and porn DVDs are shown, and moaning is heard in the background.
The movie's plot focuses on the sex-doll used by the lead character. In a scene that can be considered masturbation, he "has sex" with the doll on his bed to the point of having an orgasm (the scene is short and we only see him shirtless and thrusting). Later on the movie, the man acts like a "slave" to the doll, pretending to be punished and controlled by her. He is half-naked, and both him and the doll are wearing BDSM clothing.
