SYNOPSIS

17-year-old Renal gets brought to a sex worker by his uncle to prove his masculinity to his patriarchal father. “The Cure” shows how the absolute power of adults with a conservative and rigid mentality leads to a traumatic experience for a teenager. An educational act driven by good intentions turns into a covert psychological and physical rape.
