The three children are extremely detached from the real world and have never ventured outside of the high compound walls, instead spending their days being educated and entertained within the limits of a strict and suppressive system devised by their patriarchal father. Worryingly they have their own vocabulary and believe cats to be dangerous wild man eating predators, aeroplanes flying overhead to be toys and small yellow flowers to be zombies. When the father extends an invitation to a trusted outsider to stay and service his son's sexual urges, the domestic balance is disturbed and the protective bubble surrounding their lives soon implodes. |
