Sweet­ness

Marion and Paul are freshly in love. It's her Brother-in-law's 50th Birthday, wich Marion takes as an oppurtunity to introduce her new boyfriend to the family on the countryside. Paul, a wordly and wealthy man becomes the unwitting projection screen for every member of her familiy. During the party, vision blurred by alcohol, Marion begins to lose touch with her familiy and her love. She starts to challenge Paul, but fails to sense what ist really going on wunderneath the surface of the normal family business and what tragic reverberation the sunlight of the next morning will reveal.
