Kidnap Me

Synopsis

A Black Comedy about Sex, Lies and Gaffer Tape.
Ben and Charlie have it all - killer careers, great flat on the river, a tantalising sex life - but they're stuck in a rut.
Their efforts to keep the spark alive take them from swinging to dogging, but nothing is quite as expected! Ben has one last roll of the dice and books a 'Luxury Kidnap Experience' for Charlie's birthday.
Finally, all seems to be going to plan; but, who are these amateurs in balaclavas? Is that pee? And is Ben definitely sure he booked the spanking?
