A group of wealthy guests at a lavish dinner party find themselves inexplicably unable to leave the drawing room. As time passes, their civilized behavior deteriorates, revealing desperation, cruelty, and absurdity. The surreal confinement becomes a dark reflection on social structure and human fragility.
