About this release
Michael e Bruno, sebbene siano fratellastri, sono completamente diversi. L'unica cosa che hanno in comune è una madre che, per condurre una vita libera dalle responsabilità, li ha sempre trascurati lasciandoli alle cure dei rispettivi nonni. L'introverso biologo molecolare Michael è immerso completamente nelle sue ricerche sulla genetica ed è completamente disinteressato al sesso tanto quanto Bruno ne è schiavo, tormentato dalle sue fantasie sessuali. Tutto cambia quando nella vita dei due uomini finalmente arriva l'amore.

DramaRomance
Based on Michel Houellebecq's controversial novel, Atomised (aka The Elementary Particles) focuses on Michael and Bruno, two very different half-brothers and their disturbed sexuality. After a chaotic childhood with a hippie mother only caring for her affairs, Michael, a molecular biologist, is more interested in genes than women, while Bruno is obsessed with his sexual desires, but mostly finds his satisfaction with prostitutes. But Bruno's life changes when he gets to know the experienced Christiane. In the meantime, Michael meets Annabelle, the love of his youth, again.
