Domesticated

As Lenka Kovalcyk’s structure of compliance and restraint begins to wobble, Gabriele Bühlow discovers an unexpected backdoor out of her compulsive checking. One night. One hotel room. Two strangers. They neither want to get to know each other, nor are they truly interested in each other. They are invisible to one another. Clear hierarchy. Clear status. Me on top. You below. Yet, during this one night, they sense that they might actually have more in common than they thought. They are both hiding behind a façade. And they are sick of it!!
