ストーリー
In late-1970s Australia, naive 16-year-old Christine Lewis falls in love with handsome German immigrant Walter Maresch, a carny worker who seems like her dream man. However, their relationship quickly turns sour as Walter's sadistic side begins to reveal itself, leading to a forced marriage and an abusive life together. Even after the birth of their child, Christine remains trapped in this nightmare. Things worsen when they relocate to West Germany, where Walter forces Christine into a life with his violent neo-Nazi group, which he is an active member of within the banned Nazi Party.
