Arriving late at the grand villa with the debauched party raging, the couple attempts to cover up the incident with the collusion of the local police.
But when the boy's father arrives seeking justice, the stage is set for a tension-filled culture clash in which David and Jo must come to terms with their fateful act and its shattering consequences.
A dark and dirty morality play where nobody's very concerned with morals, John Michael McDonagh's film takes some extremely questionable behaviour and makes it as intriguing as it is off-putting.
