A man called Walter encounters a beautiful woman at a club but later finds her lying bound and bloodied in the road. He takes her to a nearby isolated villa where a sinister group of wealthy men in tuxedos are gathered and take a keen interest in the injured woman. The couple are gievn a room for the night where they are locked in. They make love but the following morning Walter wakes to find the woman gone, the villa a deserted ruin and blood on his neck. Did it happen or was it a dream? Nothing is quite what it seems...
