A talented chef with gambling woes flees to a Latin American villa to visit an old friend who appears to be living an extraordinary life as a private chef. Envy soon turns to greed and then to something deeply unsettling for the chef when he assumes his friend's life and discovers the motives of his mysterious clients.

Warwick Wilson is the consummate host. He carefully prepares for a dinner party, the table impeccably set and the duck perfectly timed for 8:30 p.m. John Taylor is a career criminal. He’s just robbed a bank and needs to get off the streets. He finds himself on Warwick’s doorstep posing as a friend of a friend, new to Los Angeles, who’s been mugged and lost his luggage.

John has escaped from prison. Warwick is preparing for a dinner party. They are about to share a memorable evening: a bit of wine, some dancing, and captivating conversation. A perfect night in this disturbing black comedy.

In his world sex is everything (if you don't count surfing, drugs and his mates). She's not so keen on his mates, but... she hasn't tried them all yet.
