Looking forward to starting university and a new chapter in his life, Leon has decided it's best to end his relationship with his girlfriend. After all, isn't uni all about being surrounded by attractive women and partying? He doesn't need to be tied down.
One year on, however, and uni life isn't quite what he expected. He's feeling bitter and emasculated. His friends haven't had much luck with the girls either. Well, apart from one who scored with a young single mother. While his friends find such a conquest pretty hilarious, Leon becomes consumed with jealousy.
He and his pals set off for some fun in the sun in Lotura which is between southern Europe and the Middle East. But quickly their boys-only holiday turns into a serious journey of self-discovery. Things get competitive. Every perilous encounter pulls them closer together despite the fact they seem to be teetering on a huge fallout.
Tackling the ups and downs of love, sex, friendship, morality and masculinity keep the boys busy. They learn more about themselves in these two weeks than in their entire lives. Rivalry is tested in ways they would never have imagined in their wildest dreams. And the magical island they're calling 'home' for a couple of weeks has much more in store for them than they anticipate.
Discover what happens in this gripping coming of age story where everything counts and everyone matters.
