Spoilers ahead
Mike, a troubled 15-year-old dropout, secures a job at a public bathhouse in East London. Under the guidance of his co-worker Susan, who is a decade older than him, Mike finds himself entangled in a world that mixes both affection and manipulation. Susan, a playful tease, oscillates between being warm and affectionate to cold and aloof, leaving Mike bewildered by her behavior.
His initiation into the job comes when a female client provocatively pushes Mike’s head into her bosom and engages him in suggestive banter about football legend George Best. Initially hesitant and perplexed, Mike is convinced by Susan that these sexual encounters are a customary aspect of their work environment, leading him to contemplate serving some of Susan’s female clients for more generous tips.
