Every man has his price, but does it buy his Sanctuary?
Bob King (foreign correspondent turned self-serving media personality)
uses his cynicism and the wisdom of experience to make his moral
judgements. He believes that he has resolved these issues years ago and
found both his physical and emotional Sanctuary.
That is until John Anderson (PhD student and self appointed biographer)
turns up to challenge it. The psychological and emotional battle that
ensues ignites a string of moral dilemmas for both men.
John begins with all the self-righteousness and certainty of youth, but
it is soon apparent that his views have been twisted by the psychology
of abuse, leaving his claim to objectivity and his high moral ground
seriously undermined. With strong emotions thrown into the mix of the
deep resentment and contempt flowing between these two men, it doesn’t
seem likely that their arguments will be resolved by debating.
What is your integrity worth? What is your deal that is too good to refuse?
