What The Snake Is About

The life of the fashion photographer Vincent is already coming apart: his marriage is over and custody of his children is in court. Then, after a session in his studio, he is accused of rape and starts losing whatever was left. At that moment Plender, someone he knew at school, appears, offers help and solves his problems. Except that the man does not want money, he wants something else. Eric Barbier adapted it from a novel by Ted Lewis, another of whose books became Get Carter. The tension comes from someone settling slowly into your life.
