But one day everything changes in their lives and relations. One weekend Ana returns from her college to help the family with the preparations to her big day. Daniel and she go shopping to buy some things to the coming holiday, and do not come back home that day.
In the town they get kidnapped by a gang of criminals. The thugs need neither money, nor anything else like that. Their demands are much more shocking and terrifying, than one could imagine. Ana and Daniel are forced to have sex with each other in front of a video camera – that is the price for their freedom.
Next morning they are released, but the mental health of both of them is shattered. They neither can tell anybody of what has happened to them, nor keep in touch with each other as before. The shame and humiliation are the emotional consequences of their common drama. As a result Ana breaks off her marriage and retreats into her own world, while Daniel accuses himself in everything happened…
