David (OWEN MCDONNELL) is a recently out of work designer going through a divorce. Lately, he’s been having\u00a0difficulties in the bedroom with his girlfriend Alice (ELENA ANAYA), a journalist, so the two begin to investigate ways to shake things up. After a stimulating encounter with two swingers adds the missing spice to their relationship, they decide to expand their sexual boundaries and explore even more intimacy with strangers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The movie is presented with an anamorphic widescreen 2.40 aspect ratio and given a standard Dolby Digital 5.1 (and 2.0) which was perfectly fine considering the vast bulk of the film is dialogue driven.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
