A picnic in the woods goes from frisky to feral in 90 brutal minutes.
Michael and Sara's relationship is filled with unsaid emotions and happy facades. In an attempt to break with conformity they plan to fulfill Sara's fantasy of having sex outdoors. Just as they have re-found the passion on the forest ground they are interrupted by two men. What started out as an innocent sexual game suddenly turns into physical and mental violations and the facade begins to crumble. A film about the eternal battle with existential mechanisms such as jealousy, dismay and desire.
