Synopsis: Lust takes center stage in a take-no-prisoners exploration of want and fidelity. Five people find out what happens when desire eclipses common sense, sex is confused with love and identity is slowly overtaken by a creeping, unforgiving weakness. These tensions eventual push some characters to literally split in two. This voyeuristic jaunt is intended for adult audiences only.
