Sinopse

George Darrow’s attempt to rekindle a romance with Anna Leath is complicated by a past indiscretion that refuses to stay buried. When the young woman from his brief affair enters their lives as a family connection, the tension becomes unbearable. The narrative dissects the corrosive nature of jealousy and the double standards applied to male and female morality. It is a psychological drama where the setting itself feels haunted by unsaid truths.
