Conveniently numbed and estranged from her surroundings, Lillian sleepwalks through life. Foremost in her life is Gene, a wealthy disturbed middle-aged benefactor with a deviant sexual fetish. When he unexpectedly leaves for a week to go skiing with his wife, Lillian is dragged out on the town by her best friend, Andrea. That’s when she meets Luke, a mysterious smooth-talking writer who opens her eyes to the world, prompting her to take a long look at the life she’s chosen for herself. As things deepen between them, Lillian finds herself trapped between the ties that bind her to Gene, the strange sexual ritual that they share, and the possibility of real love and a new sexual awakening with Luke.
When Gene returns, Lillian is caught in the middle of a triangle. Ultimately she discovers that what appears to be true on the surface quite often is not. Her struggle for freedom and a sense of identity culminates in a conflict where the one you live may not be the one you can trust and the habits with which one sleepwalks through life are not easily broken when you awake. -- © Pathfinder Pictures
