Synopsis

Spoiler shield

The lonely doctor Gabriel Glas despises society's superficiality - until the fashion designer Helga enters his life. She's trapped in a destructive marriage, and Gabriel sees his chance to save her. Soon, they are caught in a web of lies, desire, and power. The deeper Gabriel is drawn into the relationship, the more moral boundaries he crosses - with catastrophic consequences.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
