In an elegant apartment in New York, two young friends, Brandon and Phillip, carry out a macabre experiment: they have murdered their former classmate, David, solely for the thrill of proving they can commit the perfect crime. Confident in their intellectual superiority, they decide to host a dinner in the very place where they hide the body, using the trunk containing the corpse as part of the décor. As the evening unfolds, their guests, including David's parents and his former teacher, dive into conversations about morality, philosophy, and life itself.
But the tension begins to rise when Rupert, an old mentor and friend of the trio, arrives for dinner. With his keen insight, Rupert starts to suspect that something is amiss in the evening's atmosphere. As Brandon and Phillip try to maintain their facade, their nerves are tested between guilt and ostentation. The situation becomes increasingly untenable as small clues begin to emerge, pitting the morality of life and death against intellect and arrogance.
The film is an intense psychological game that explores the depths of friendship, life, and crime, where each character becomes ensnared in a deadly dance. With an innovative approach and a plot full of tension, this cinematic masterpiece creates an atmosphere of emotional claustrophobia that leaves the viewer on the edge of their seat.
