Night Trip

Thomas and his quest for friendship and love

12-year-old Thomas takes rowing lessons and grows rather fond of his teacher. He idolizes his trainer – and when the boy discovers that the person he felt such a love for lied to him in order to sleep with his mother – his heart is broken. It's hard for him to understand why his trainer would prefer to be intimate with his mother than to be with him.
