The Perfect Host

Dinner parties are a dying art.

A darkly comedic thriller about a meticulous host and a desperate criminal locked in a tense, increasingly surreal dinner-party standoff.

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.
