A darkly comedic hostage-romance that mines absurdist humor from marital breakdown and forced reconciliation, balancing captivity-thriller tension with playful irreverence.
After her adulterous husband asks for a divorce, a high-powered attorney takes him captive, refusing to release him until he commits to working on their marriage together. When his impatient mistress shows up, not to mention an opportunistic gardener, things start to get seriously complicated.
