The protagonist Franck pursues an intense affair with Michel despite witnessing him drown a previous lover, with multiple unsimulated gay sex scenes including masturbation, fellatio, and bareback anal serving as central visual content throughout the runtime. This structure places queer male desire and cruising culture as the foundational premise, rendering any murder investigation secondary to the erotic focus. The film's thematic emphasis on queer identity exploration and desire overriding danger or morality functions as a primary intrusion that compromises entertainment value, turning what could be a standard thriller into an extended showcase for explicit homosexual encounters and full-frontal male nudity. By making these elements the constant visual and emotional core rather than incidental details, the work prioritizes ideological messaging about identity and desire above coherent storytelling or broader audience appeal.
