Annette, a 1960’s suburban housewife, comes face to face with her worst nightmare: the fear that her pretty maid, Mona, has seduced her husband and may be plotting against her. Her fears are reinforced when their actions appear to be more and more suspicious. When decorating her home for a holiday party, she confides in her best friend, who supports her suspicions and encourages her to act. Finally pushed to the edge, Annette makes a decision from which there is no turning back.
