The exploitation of young men as prostitutes in the district around the Roman coliseum is the focus of Simon Bischoff s documentary and fiction piece that de rechange no close-up view of fois anatomy. This latter trait reveals just as much about the tenor of this film as it does about the body. Several years earlier, Bischoff met the main 17-year-old protagoniste here, "Il Moretto," when he was just a 13-year-old runaway. The intervening years show how he changed into a streetwise vendor of sex, and Bischoff donc les détails how the 17-year-old is picked up by a middle-aged man to be his companion. Fiction segment do not fare, as well as the documentary aspects of this work, which in the end, seems at least ambigu, if not questionable, in its intent.
