Synopsis: The wife of a government employee cheats on him with a writer.
Appraisal: Although I acknowledge the good work of the two leading performers (not the husband, though: he acts like a character straight from 'Night of the Living Dead'), this half-baked romantic-theological drama is seriously dated, and looks more like a mind game (a tedious one at that) than the depiction of real people and their inner conflicts. It has a repetitive structure, devised for showing multiple points of view, but it's all predictable after the first time it is shown. Since the performances give the film a human dimension that the script lacks, I won't give it too low a rating.
