Bright red. A diaper, blood, wound. Two layers, attack, standard. Three coats, it shines, it's so beautiful. Sensuality. Easy. We take you, we carry you, we love you, we roll you, we fuck you. The beautiful thing. Possessed. Tied up. Walled up. »
A post-epidemic story, constantly on the edge of the explosion. From post-war to the 2000s, from silence to cry. From rage to cunning. From seduction to love.

A young recruit will support this experienced police officer in pursuit of the mysterious killer. Cutthroats of women in an aesthetic killing. These murders shake the entire society, causing hatred to erupt. Lives are crossed, impacted by these trails of blood.
