Leo and Louise are in love and share a flat. Leo likes to go drinking with his buddies and watch action movies on the VCR, while Louise prefers quiet nights at home. While Leo seems better adjusted with his friends, that begins to change when Louise informs him that she's going to have a baby. Leo doesn't react well to the news: He becomes remote and begins to turn violent, as a long-held self-loathing finally begins to rise to the surface.
