Simo’s mother has them stay together for the last day before Simo’s brother has to go to prison, in the hopes that Simo may learn something for himself.
Rather of being a source of strength for her children, she is struggling to find it within herself. His mother’s behavior isn’t helping matters either. He heavily enlists the help of his older brother to save him from harm. Simo lacks the courage and self-assurance required to survive in this world. The story follows a 14-year-old child who spends his final day with his elder brother before the latter begins his prison sentence. His easygoing demeanor and welcoming demeanor draw notice, and he quickly becomes friends with Wellington, who asks him to visit his equally quirky family for Christmas. As the holidays approach, Elias considers forming new relationships and spends time with the factory workers. For the time being, he has been in an on-again, off-again relationship with a much older man. He seems to be traveling from one relationship to the next, accumulating a string of partners wherever he goes. The narrative of Elias, a gay man in his early twenties who is navigating his profession and relationships, is told in ‘Body Electric.’ He works in a garment factory and enjoys it most days, but he also feels stuck at times because nothing seems to inspire him any longer, which is not a good sign given his age.
