One day you'll wake up on the grass in the park to hear: 'Hello!' from an unknown girl, and your world will be turned upside-down. Glorious future of a pianist will seem boring. Clever, attentive girlfriend - too ordinary. And the slogan of your new life will be: 'Crash the taboos!'

WishMaster, Clever Lil, New, Skunk, Fox, Foxy, CatÖ this is a group of people who reckon that their invented life is much more important and real than what their birth held in store for them. They practice a sado-masochism, creating around their passions the romantic image of another world visible only to them. From the position of ordinary citizens they are no more than perverts with mental deviations. And still, who are they? How do they survive in a world that they call ìvanillaî? And why do they use these strange nicknames and carefully chosen, ominous attributes: flogging scourges or latex suits? What do they see in their hobby that we do not see ñ and never shall see, if we limit ourselves by a documentary approach?
