Alec (played by newcomer Caolán O'Gorman) is a gentle and introverted teenager whose entire experience with sexuality is helping out at his father Dylan's (Andrew Howard) low-budget porn company. 

After his mum dies, Alec gets more and more involved in the business. He only gets to know about sex by watching his dad's performances through his camera lens. When the family business's income takes a dramatic downturn, father and son are forced to move to a small coastal town, marking a new beginning for Alec. At school, Alec meets the headstrong Nina (Safiya Benaddi), who has strong feminist views, a striking contrast to what he is used to at home. As their relationship deepens, Alec's understanding of sexuality and desire begins to change. Nina challenges him to dare to be vulnerable and to discover together what it means to truly expose yourself and be seen.
