Adaptation of Klaus Rifbjerg's earliest (1958) novel deals with the friendship between high school students Janus and Tore. Janus idolizes handsome and self-assured Tore and feels that Helle, a girl from another school is about to steal Tore away from him. All three are sexual innocents as yet. Janus stumbles into bed with an easy lay. Helle keeps Tore at arm's lenght, only to see him seduced by her own mother.
