19-year-old Tommy (Anson Boon) is enjoying his life as a criminal, constantly egging his friends on to commit cruel acts of violence and bragging about it on social media - until one night he is kidnapped by a stranger. When Tommy wakes up, he finds himself chained up in the basement of a remote suburban house, where his kidnapper Chris (Stephen Graham) lives with his wife Kathryn (Andrea Riseborough) and their young son Jonathan. The family goes to great lengths to 'reform' Tommy's uncontrolled behavior, subjecting him to numerous psychological games in an attempt to turn him into a 'good boy'. Whilst Tommy resists this by every means possible, he is drawn ever deeper into the dysfunctional family dynamics of Chris, Kathryn and Jonathan, but is also confronted with his own longings. And gradually, Tommy realizes that his feelings are blurring between hatred and sympathy, between the urge to flee and the need for closeness.
