A troubled writer and his wife travel to a remote tropical island seeking peace, only to become ensnared in a web of lust, jealousy, and violence. As their marriage unravels, they’re drawn into the island’s dark underbelly of exploitation and madness. This provocative Italian drama blends psychological tension, eroticism, and tropical unease in a descent into paradise lost.
