SPEAK NO EVIL

Sometimes, it would be wise for parents to follow the advice they give to their kids. ‘Don’t talk to strangers,’ being a good one to start with. This fundamental lesson will soon be learned in ways most unfortunate by a friendly Danish family vacationing in Tuscany who find themselves befriended by a Dutch clan. Months go by, then suddenly the Danish couple get an invitation to visit the other family for a getaway weekend in their remote house. It would plainly be rude to decline such generosity. How could they say no? Not long after arriving, one awkward misunderstanding follows another. Energies begin to shift. Boundaries start being crossed.
