射局

1916年，第一次世界大戰在西線激烈進行，約克郡拉姆斯登的合唱協會失去了大部分男性成員，他們都應征入伍了。雄心勃勃的委員會決心繼續前行，決定招募本地的年輕男性來填補隊伍空缺。同時，他們還必須聘請一位新的合唱指揮，最有希望的人選是亨利·格思里博士（拉爾夫·費因斯 飾）——一個意志堅定、毫不妥協、剛從德國音樂生涯歸來的男人。隨著征兵通知陸續送達，全社區的人逐漸意識到，在戰爭摧毀一切的混亂中，最有力的回應就是：一起奏響音樂。

　　British Army radiation drills at a remote Scottish base attract a subterranean, radioactive entity of unknown nature that vanishes, leaving two severely radiation-burned soldiers... and a "bottomless" crack in the earth. Others who meet the thing in the night suffer likewise, and with increasing severity; it seems to be able to "absorb" radiation from any source, growing bigger and bigger. What is it?? How do you destroy a thing that "feeds" on energy?

　　Sheila Hood is an ex-cop whose marriage is on the rocks. Rather than confronting her husband about an affair, she hides surveillance cameras in her home and watches his transgressions, becoming a voyeur of her own life. Her husband, Tom Kale, is an ornithologist who begins an affair with an ex-girlfriend, Merle James, whose beauty and fragility echoes that of the birds he studies. Ray Starling, the charismatic owner of a boutique hotel, is Merle’s lover, and has dealings with her father, Mr James, a powerful oil baron who operates in the shadows but whose influence touches the whole city. Merle’s younger sister, Hazel, is also drawn to Tom, but trapped in Starling’s web of power. Calvin is an cop whose loyalty to his ex partner, Hood, is tested when mounting evidence from her own surveillance tapes connects her and Tom to Starling’s murder, and perhaps even Merle’s mysterious death.
