Paradies Liebe

Teresa is 50, a single mother and not in the best of shapes anymore. Lack of a sex life and boredom dominate her life. She misses the feeling of being desired. On holiday in Africa, Teresa wants to take a break from all this. Her friends, referred to as sugar mamas, enjoy the labour of love by young Kenyan beach boys. Overwhelmed by the men, Teresa becomes a sex tourist. For her, this is the only place where she can lend herself to the illusion that her aging body is a token of love. Nevertheless, while chasing for love, Teresa turns into a victim herself.
