This tense mystery involvestwo sisters Steph (Teresa Palmer) and Alice (Felicity Price) who go on an impromptu holiday to Cambodia with their partners Jeremy (Antony Starr) and Dave (Joel Edgerton). The buoyant, beautifully-shot opening scenes of the touristy fun and frivolity of Cambodia are soon overshadowed when Jeremy disappears after their night of partying. What follows is some clever non-linear storytelling from first-time director Kieran Darcy-smith. Edgerton is spot-on as guilt threatens to derail the group’s lives while the question of what happened lingers.
