The upper middle class family, who gathers at a chateau hotel, is fractious, even before the eldest son lays into pappa during his 60th birthday bash. A year earlier one of the daughters committed suicide and her spirit haunts the place. Another son demonstrates psychotic tendencies by raping his wife and verbally attacking everyone else. Those who revel in tradition's downfall and find humiliation a turn-on will be in their element. Others may find the relentless exposure of weakness and hypocrisy embarrassing.
Nice families are nice.
