Synopsis

‹ The template below (Promotional) is being considered for merging. See templates for discussion to help reach a consensus. ›

New York power couple John and Natalie are hosting a dinner for Elliot, a friend from their college days, along with Mark, a strait-laced young man. After drinking too many expensive bottles of wine, the group's past and their long-buried secrets resurface. Over the course of this raucous evening, their basic belief systems are upended, as the four come to terms with what happens when they try to reconcile idealism with reality.

This high-society evening turns into a night of sexually charged mind games that could change their lives forever.
