After disposing of his current muse (possibly messily), Mason, a shy telesalesman with a passion for jazz and painting, strikes up an unlikely friendship with the bubbly new girl at work, who agrees to be his new model; but his increasingly irrational behaviour ensures that things will end anything but well, in Green and Moore’s painfully convincingly acted and deceptively unpredictable psychological drama-cum-thriller (the incongruous use of Alex Lloyd’s Sometimes on the otherwise jazz filled soundtrack is a curious misstep, though).
