    • Paula and Claire Lohman (Steve Coogan and Laura Linney) are having dinner with Paul's politician brother Stan and his wife Katelyn (Richard Gere and Rebecca Hall), but as the evening in a chic restaurant progresses, dark secrets emerge about their respective children. A monstrous crime has been committed by the Lohman Kids and the two couples are divided on how to handle the situation.

      The question is: how far are parents prepared to go to protect their children?
