Decorum

A woman with a cigarette in her mouth stands in front of a bright red wall
A knife cuts into a lime, juice running down the side
A dark haired man leans forward, smiing
A young man and young woman stand close together in a corridor, staring into each other's eyes
A man in green shirt, with his back three quarters to us, holds his arms crossed, as a woman on the right of the frame looks at him, clearly angry

Synopsis

Miles and Angie go back to his flat after a perfect first date. But when she enters, she's struck by the blankness of it; the lack of decoration and furniture. As she explores more of the flat, she becomes more and more disturbed. But when Miles makes her a drink, they settle down to chatting and everything seems fine again. Until she realises he's been lying to her this whole time, about something small that might represent a much bigger threat...
