Synopsis

At the invitation of a theatre director, a group of actors and production personnel reunite for the lavish re-staging, in a mansion, of a classic theatrical masterpiece that was last presented more than 10 years ago. At that time, an act of sabotage on stage during the performance resulted in the death of the leading lady. Subsequent police investigations failed to uncover any evidence to identify the mastermind behind the incident, and the case remains unsolved. The reunion brings together everyone who was linked to the incident in one way or another, and the group soon realises that the gathering was called for a reason unknown to them.
