Professor Jorissen lives an ordinary, repressed life until the return of the victim of a past transgression reopens a wound that never healed. Caught between guilt, desire, and obsession, he spirals toward a reckoning. The film is directed by Paul Schrader, a master of contemporary American cinema.
