A made-for-television movie adapted from a play by Christopher Hampton, it features witty dialogue amidst remarkable conflict among privileged characters. The story follows a dinner party where Philip, his fiancée Celia, and their friends discuss love, playwriting, and more. Despite seismic events unfolding outside, their conversation remains focused on usual subjects, with a hit list targeting English writers and government collapse receiving little reaction. The party is filled with drama, including unexpected romantic connections.
