On the eve of an important campaign dinner, the wife of a politician attempts to leave her marriage from her unfaithful husband.

Synopsis

Tonight, Edward and Juliette have an important campaign dinner. Ever since Edward decided to run for office, their married life has turned into an idealised image of what their relationship should be, with the exception of one thing – children. Juliette has struggled to conceive a child for many years, and Edward, bridging closer to election date, is failing an important campaign promise of family values. Juliette no longer feels satisfied in this union, and plans to leave Edward. He tries to get her to stay, filling her with empty promises. However, Juliette has more power than Edward is aware of.

ROLE: Juliette

Sophisticated, calculating, yet naïve. Mature and thoughtful. Perfect posture. Elongated, elegant limbs. Graceful, vulnerable eyes. Brunette.

Juliette has enjoyed the power womanhood has granted her. However, she soon learns that she is unable to exercise her power as she pleases. Her entire wedded life with her husband, she has played an image of the ideal companion, most ardent supporter, and most private confidante. However, the immense pressure of public life, as well as the infidelities on her husband's part has worn her down over the years - but she has enough leverage to shift power. Marriage is now a trap that she must escape from - unharmed.

ROLE: Edward
Stern, stoic, explosive. Rugged, yet refined. Apogee of modern masculinity. The silver spoon has never left his tongue. Graying hair.

Edward was born into a prominent family, and continues the legacy that was written for him. After many successful business ventures, he is trying his hand in politics. Total control and submission is what he desires most. From crafting a perfect image, to ensuring nothing affects that image, he will go to any length to succeed.
