Accident
The story of a love triangle... and the four people trapped in it!
Directed by Joseph Losey
Produced by Royal Avenue Chelsea
A brooding, intellectually rigorous examination of desire, entrapment, and moral decay among Oxford academics, structured around a catastrophic accident that exposes the rot beneath civilized surfaces.
Stephen is a professor at Oxford University who is caught in a rut and feels trapped by his life in both academia and marriage. One of his students, William, is engaged to the beautiful Anna, and Stephen becomes enamored of the younger woman. These three people become linked together by a horrible car crash, with flashbacks providing details into the lives of each person and their connection to the others in this brooding English drama.
