Synopsis Robert (25) - a man with everything going for him falls for Alice (25), a knockout. For both of them this is a ‘once in a lifetime’ love.
Against all reason Robert’s total commitment to Alice crumbles with her pregnancy, as he is haunted by the nightmare of abusing his child. Relief beckons in the all too familiar world of casual sex and pornography. With the birth of his son he is catapulted into the abyss of losing all that he loves. Misunderstood by the people closest to him, a wall of silence grows around him.
Terrified, Robert sets out to identify the face that inhabits his nightmare. In defiance of his father’s legacy of paedophilia, Robert spirals down into the pain of absolute self exposure. There he recognises, in his own naked being, not an abuser but a lover, a husband, and a father.
This drama encapsulates the intensity and pain of films like Mystic River and 21 grams. A story that will resonate with anyone who has struggled with the difficult things they inherit from childhood. This is a powerful and eloquent psychological drama where a man finds the courage to explore his own darkness as he desperately attempts to find the light.
