Harems is a love story between a screen-writer and a gogo-boy, the latter being typically representative of the image of seduction in the 80's.

She introduces the spectator to the psychological state of the screen-writer - who is in the process of inventing a mythic character based on his lover - and befriends and helps the gogo-boy in his quest for happiness. The narrator relates the story taking place between the two men and questions the relationship between fantasy and the reality of love.
