Film Synopsis
Teresa's one overriding ambition is that her son Jacy will have a better
life than she has had. It is a goal she has been wedded to since her
son was born, and Jacy shows his gratitude by running away from home when
his mother embarks an another love affair. For a while, the young man
amuses himself with a succession of short-term, meaningless liaisons with
a number of women. But then he meets a somewhat backwards sugar mummy
and manages to leap several rungs up the social ladder by marrying her.
Of course, his social climbing mother is delighted by this happy turn of
events - it is just what she wanted for her dear little boy. Now she
can devote herself to her own pursuit for happiness, which she believes she
can find in the company of a sympathetic schoolteacher who has fallen madly
in love with her...
