A tense psychological drama about paternal possessiveness and jealousy that poisons a father-son bond, set against the backdrop of a Spanish coastal town.
Harrington Brande, a British diplomat who recently broke up with his wife, is stationed in a small coastal town in Spain with his son, Nicholas. Harrington is unreasonably possessive of Nicholas and becomes jealous when he begins to form a close friendship with Jose, their gentle gardener.
