Erotic thriller about the eternal triangle with a twist: young couple living together and in love; she tentatively lets a former, rather older, lover back into her life; the lover wants to play games, dangerous games that soon include her partner too. He revolts and sets out to kill the lover. At the end, the woman emerges from the affair, sadder but wiser, while the men are left behind as losers.

Det Danske Filminstitut registrerer international festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film,
dog primært de titler, som Filminstituttet varetager i sin festivaldistribution,
og primært i forbindelse med de festivaler, som Filminstituttet har prioriteret at samarbejde med.
Registreringen af festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film, der ikke er i festivaldistribution,
foretages kun for "launch"-festivaler ifølge Filminstituttets prioriterede festivalliste. Se listen over prioriterede festivaler.
