Diskrēts
At 22, Kristaps still lives with his father, and their relationship is far from perfect. Every conversation turns into an argument because both men refuse to be open - Kristaps does not talk about his homosexuality, his father about his new relationship and how he appreciates his son's presence. The impetus to change comes when Kristaps meets his boss, Marek, who in Kristaps' eyes symbolises freedom.
