About
Teresa (Margarete Tiesel), a 50-year-old Austrian housewife, travels to the beaches of Kenya as a sex tourist or "Sugar Mama". There, she moves from one Beach Boy to the next, buying their love only to be disappointed and quickly learning that there, love is strictly a business. With his very unique brand of realism, socio-political critique and warped humour, Ulrich Seidl deals with the market value of sexuality, older women and young men, the power of skin colour, Europe and Africa, and the exploited, who have no choice but to exploit others.
