“Leonardo DiCaprio is electrifying” (David Sheehan, CBS-TV) in this adrenaline-drenched, tantalizingly seductive thriller from the director of TRAINSPOTTING. Richard (DiCaprio), a young American backpacker, is willing to risk his life for just one thing: that mind-blowing rush you can only get from braving the ultimate adventure. But on a secret, deceptively perfect beach, Richard will discover that “heaven on earth” can instantly change into a jungle of seduction and danger. Co-starring sexy newcomer Virginie Ledoyen, this “journey to the unexpected, full of surprises, twists and turns, love and romance, lust and desire” (Maria Sallas, GEMS) explores the hidden perils and dark places that lurk just beyond the shores of paradise.
