The drunken lady, a person without a name, you could also call her the one being bound into a corset, gets deeper and deeper into despair and later into alcohol addiction due to an encounter with a man with whom she falls in love.
To him, her sweetheart, practicing sexuality with several women is normal, he also prefers abnormal sexual practices.
In her excessive drinking and delirium, she meets other men who all have one thing in common: they do not share her romantic idea of ​​love, but they destroy her dream. It should be noted that these encounters would never have occurred without alcohol consumption. Her life goes downhill.
Since she always insults her lover in the most violent way when she is drunk, she seeks help from a psychotherapist. Without professional help, the lover would leave her.
For her, a bad relationship is better than none, because she would not be emotionally able to cope with a breakup.
Alcohol has meanwhile become her elixir of life. Men are being considered sex-obsessed human beings.
Another man at the bar would like to introduce her to bondage games, the next one says that there are no men who do not consume porn. They all represent what is not good for you.
And finally, it comes to her redeeming moment: In a dream, she strangles her lover with the bondage of the man who wanted to bring bondage games closer to her as a pleasurable practice. She bursts out laughing. Or isn´t it a dream at all? The conclusion remains open.
Her subconscious has started to fight back. Is it the beginning of her recovery in search of herself, or has she just gone from bad to worse?
The bondage is a symbol of violence, both mentally and physically. Nobody is interested in her needs, she has been “tied up”, the needs of the others have been placed on top of her own needs. The bondage is an instrument of pleasure, which at the same time triggers fear, but with which she ultimately frees herself.
