Description
A seaside resort in Postwar England is the setting for a tragicomedy that unfolds like a thriller. Summer, 1947, brings a catastrophic event when a cliff tumbles down on the Pendizack Manor Hotel, destroying it and claiming the lives of seven guests. As the survivors recount their stories, the events of the previous week are revealed, exposing a parade of vices and sins. Gluttony, lecherousness, sloth, pride, covetousness, envy, and wrath are all present at the hotel, and the line between who's spared and who's lost becomes increasingly unclear.
