Synopsis: "Modern day. A married couple in their thirties find themselves in a comfortable tent atop a hill at the Glastonbury Festival, UK. As a sudden storm hits, they offer shelter to another couple. An enigmatic stranger briefly appears, delivering cryptic remarks before vanishing. The night takes an unexpected turn as the couples begin exploring uncharted territory in their relationships. By morning, the dynamics have shifted dramatically.
