Something Real

Porn addict Leo, who is desperately looking for a connection, wants to meet up with a woman he met on a dating platform but falls victim to a blackmail trap set up by Karl, a criminal just out of prison. Leo is a kind-hearted man who has long since given up on ambitious life pursuits and instead lives listlessly in a suburban terrace house with his wife Diana and their two children. For a while now, Leo has dreamed of something real, and after falling victim to Karl’s extortion scheme, he is suddenly faced with something far too real — something that threatens to take away everything he has. On the other hand, Karl, who plans to use his victims to forcefully build a family and future for himself—something he’s never had — slowly finds himself also getting trapped by his own ambitions. Soon, both men are faced with an uncertain future that steadily moves toward a violent climax.
