Description:

In this psychological thriller, the protagonist is a meticulously rational British psychiatrist whose life takes an unexpected turn when he discovers his wife's infidelity. Rather than succumbing to emotion-driven reactions, he chooses to devise a clever and intricate revenge plot against his wife's lover. As the story unfolds, the viewer is led through a labyrinth of carefully constructed deceptions that reveal not only the psychiatrist's intellectual prowess but also his deeply emotional response to the betrayal. The movie delves into themes of obsession, manipulation, and the blurred lines between rationality and desire as it explores how far one man will go to avenge his heart.
