Daughter Anna is in her early twenties, and at loose ends. She works an office job that bores her, and is in a romance with a pompous pseudo-intellectual. Anna's father, Robert, is a brutal tyrant who terrorizes his poor, put-upon wife Margret. On the surface, Robert is appalling enough, but underneath he's far, far worse. Just how far he'll go and how Anna and Margret will respond gets more shocking as the film progresses. Written by sconnors-2 See less
