VIOLENTLY HAPPY

Acarnal and intimate film about a group of Berliners who are looking for new ways of living, while dancing, doing yoga and playing with infamous fantasies, S&M and sexuality in a sunbathed experimental 500 square meter living room. Is the practice of violence in a controlled and friendly space an evolution in our civilization?
