Synopsis:
Tess and Lloyd are rehearsing a theatrical rape scene, with Connie directing and Brooke as the intimacy coordinator.
The actors and director, all seasoned theatre practitioners, are somewhat sceptical of the need for an intimacy coordinator and, as the rehearsal progresses, Lloyd begins to feel that Brooke has an agenda that is slanted against him.
A month later, already performing to audiences, an accusation is made.
The fallout is catastrophic.
