There are certain pleasures in life. And there are certain taboos we conquer to experience them. You know the ones I mean. The kind, which put up a fight in the face of mortality. The ones they deem evil, unforgiving and dangerous. The pleasures of each one of our senses: taste, sound, sight, smell and touch. These are the pleasures of decadence. The insatiable debauchery of being human and feeling human. This film documents the experiences of such pleasures: drugs, alcohol, dancing and sex, with friends, strangers and lovers. There is no time now to shy away from it. Come and follow Rosie on the cyclical eternity of such pleasures. These experiences are here to be enjoyed. But not forever! Our lavish adoration for amusing revelry always comes to an end - either with damnation, disease or a nasty hang over. The freedom becomes restraint, chaos becomes habit, and temporality becomes repetition. So, from the other side of the taboo, Rosie stares back at herself from within the mirror. And from these certain pleasures in life she come to feel its breath. There are certain pleasures in life. And there are certain taboos we conquer to experience them. Ring-around-a-Rosie is about those kind of pleasures. The pleasures we are warned from as children. And the pleasures we consequently become ever curious about. For seven minutes, follow her and watch her. She is only that mirror.
