A satiric story dealing with a serious social issue - the rapid creation and breaking of relationships between young people. The problem is shown through the eyes of a little girl who has become a passive witness to her mothers whims. Each sequence of the film was designed by a different designer so not only the little girl but also the film has got twelve "fathers".
