The year is 1984. Frank is an 18-year-old boy, who has just ‘come out’. He loves dancing and leads a superficial life partying and discovering his sexuality. He decides to leave for Amsterdam with his friend Rita. However, after a couple of weeks, she heads off to the South of France, which leaves Frank on his own.
Frank manages to get a job as a dancer in the House of Boys, a gay cabaret/strip club. There he meets Jake, an American dancer in his early 20’s, Jake. Frank is attracted to this good-looking, mature boy. After a concert night, Jake and Frank’s relationship deepens and they make love for the first time.
This newfound happiness is threatened when Jake falls ill. He is diagnosed with a new disease officially called AIDS, but referred to as ‘gay cancer’. During his long agony, Frank never moves from his friend’s side.
Frank still has an irrational hope that Jake will get better. He promises him that they will visit Essaouira together, a place that Jake has always dreamed of visiting because his idol, Jimmy Hendrix, once lived there.
