Synopsis

Warning: screenonline full synopses contain 'spoilers' which give away key plot points. Don't read on if you don't want to know the ending!

Against a lush tropical backdrop, two women strip off their outer garments, grab butcher's knives, circle each other menacingly and then lunge forwards. A struggle ensues, which is ended by the death of one of them. She falls to the ground, and the other stands over her triumphantly.
