Traumatized by rape, promising photography student Allison withdraws from her life. Her boyfriend Chris, unable to relieve her suffering and groping for his own catharsis, decides to take the law into his own hands.

A young couple, deeply committed and in love. Both are upstanding university students. The young man, Chris, is the editor in chief of the campus newspaper. The woman, Allison, is a photography major, with a promising profile and outlook on life. As the audience is getting to know and love these characters Allison is raped by a fellow student with whom she was working on a project. As is often the case, Allison keeps the event a secret, as she is too embarrassed and too conflicted to know what to do. She loses confidence in herself as well as others because someone she knew and trusted has betrayed and degraded her. Allison continues to sink into a depression and eventually, through her best friend and confidant, Chris finds out what has happened. Chris's inability to understand Allison's lack of reprisal mixes with rage, guilt and hurt as he is unable to properly share this knowledge with Allison or anyone and begin to heal. When Chris learns of the specifics of the perpetrator he begins to plot revenge. Their relationship begins to decay through mis-communication and anger.—Anonymous
