A contemporary interpretation of an old Greek myth. The picture 'Hylas and the Nymphs', painted by J.W. Waterhouse in 1896 has come to life: The body of a young man floats in a lily pond. Three young female suspects are found and interrogated - the nymphs of our generation. They are vulgar, mendacious and innocent, and they love it. Lolita goes anarchy.
