The only real victim of this film is the traditional easy trope of sensationalised violence against women and our persistent societal dishonesty about sex work.

Leon and his partner meet up with friends to have a day walking. But with their relationship on the rocks, the pull of nature and its head-quieting effect transform his outlook on life.
