The Field

Synopsis

A romantic picnic in a strangely idyllic field goes awry when a couple find themselves trapped and unable to leave. Forced to confront the cracks in their relationship, they slowly descend into a bitter web of jealousy, petty recriminations and violence. In short, an unromantic comedy.
