Adapted from the novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Choderlos de Laclos

The most powerful metaphor for sex is war, where victory is the ultimate – the only – pleasure. An award-winning play and film,Dangerous Liaisons exposes secret lovers as victims in a game of lust, scandal, and revenge at the hands of two elite master manipulators. Submerged in the corrupt morality of pre-revolutionary France and ensnared in a struggle for domination, love becomes an empty illusion and cruel amusement trumps even physical delights. Corset strings tighten and guillotines sharpen as masters become slaves.
