A couple of older boys from the school football team pinch their coach's phone. Whilst ogling the local nudists on the beach, they look at his photos and discover he has some of one of them from their post match shower. They decide to indulge in some good, old-fashioned, homophobic revenge which all gets way out of hand. It could have been much more quirky, but instead the vengeance is far too over-the-top for the 20 minutes the film lasts, so we get little context in which to put the two boys and/or their coach who may or may not be a "pédé"; an ambiguity only compounded by the bizarre ending.
