| Summary |
A tense psychological drama, inspired by real-life events. Australian documentary maker Emily, and her journalist husband, Danny, are reeling from an allegation of abuse their four-year-old daughter Natasha has made against a local politician's nine-year-old son, Ethan. Ethan's parents, Joel and Bek, arrive unannounced at Emily and Danny's house intent on convincing the couple that Natasha's allegation is a fabrication. Accusations, arguments, and the ultimate search for leverage turn their civil conversation into a vicious confrontation. |
