Film Synopsis

The Denoms are a prosperous family who are looking forward to their annual break at their house in the country.  The well-deserved holiday takes an unexpected turn when their brother-in-law Samuel shows up unexpectedly.  The Denoms haven't seen Samuel since the tragic death of his wife the previous year.  Now, paralysed, the interloper is confined to a wheelchair and has the use of only one hand.  Over the following days, Samuel's recriminations for his in-laws will surface and poison the atmosphere for everyone...
