Synopsis
Based on the novel Transfixions by Brigitte Aubert, chisel-featured Bo (Robinson Stevenin who won a 2002 Cesar award for this performance) obsesses over his hunky, sexually ambitious neighbor Johnny, but Johnny rejects Bo's advances. Meanwhile, hardened detective Huysmans tracks a serial killer who has targeted the Brussels transsexual prostitute community. All paths intersect when Bo's friends become the killer's victims and the detective targets Bo as the prime suspect. Unless he can find the real killer and clear his name, Bo will be arrested or even worse: become the killer's next victim.
