In this American dramatic masterpiece, George, a professor at a small college, and his wife Martha have returned home from a Saturday night party when Martha announces that she has invited a young couple, new professor Nick and his wife Honey, to stop by for a nightcap. The drinks flow, and the inhibitions melt as this blazing story of desires, dreams, barbs, and brutality unfolds.
