STORY

In his sterile, super stylish Notting Hill kitchen, Michael prepares dinner for two.

Meticulously cutting vegetables with surgeon like precision, he talks, with knife-like wit, about cases in history where the human body has continued to prove useful even after death.

Slicing and chopping, one wonders who is coming for dinner and what the main course might be.

When his young guest arrives, they engage in a series of funny, thrilling but searingly dangerous mind games, as they try to unravel the reasons why they are both there.

Only when the games turn deadly do they catch a glimpse of the sadness and loss within each of them, that enables them to at least begin to connect with the truth.
