Answer 1

Mainly it is about a man (Clive Owen) who meets a lovely woman (Jennifer Aniston) on a train and starts an extra- marital fling with her. But on what would have been their first night together their hotel room is broken into by an armed man ( Vincent Cassel) and they are robbed, physically assaulted and she is raped by him. After the delinquent leaves, the man feels guilty and impotent for not being able to do anything since he does not want to hurt his wife, but then the robber contacts and starts blackmailing him. It is really worth seeing. I gave no spoilers away, and I assure you that it has some really amazing plot turns and the climax is something to talk about, give it a try!!

Charles is worn down by his home life where he and his wife struggle to cope with the demands their daughter's illness, and his job.

The room is invaded by a thief, Laroche (Vincent Cassel), who steals the couple and rapes Lucinda. A couple of days later, Charles is blackmailed, but Lucinda is reluctant of going to the police since she does not want to lose the custody of her daughter. When Laroche menaces Charles' family, the executive tries to solve the problem and the situation gets completely out of control.
