The final screen collaboration between Rossellini and Bergman also marked the end of their volatile personal relationship. Bergman plays the wife of a prominent scientist who is blackmailed by her lover's mistress. When she discovers the truth behind the extortion plan, she is driven to violent measures. The Rossellini-Bergman collaborations frequently dwelled on darker emotions; here, they are manifested in a thriller plot with uncharacteristic Hitchockian flair.
