Ivan (Guy Pearce) is a highly respected university professor with a very virtuous wife. Whether in family life or career, Ivan is undoubtedly a model in the eyes of his friends. But in fact, Ivan is a gentleman, and he has entangled ambiguous relationships with many of his female students. One day, a girl named Joyce (Odeya Rush) died strangely. She was Ivan's student. Joyce's death soon attracted the attention of detective Malloy (Pierce Brosnan). As the investigation deepened, various clues pointed the suspect's target to Ivan. Although Malloy was highly suspicious of Ivan, he could not find conclusive evidence to convict him. At the same time, Ivan's wife also knew about her husband's obscene activities.
