Acting
A sunny California afternoon. The Host welcomes a couple and their four year-old daughter Piggy to his housewarming party. His high-school friend and unrequited love climbs out of the pool to greet the new guests. She knows The Father--she applied to work at his much-anticipated restaurant opening in town. In a game of cat and mouse, the couple toy with other guests. Envy brews under the surface of every interaction as seduction becomes a tool of torture. Each character masks the pain to spare themselves and the child.
