Sinopsis:

From the author of ‘Crash’ and ‘Cocaine Nights’ comes an unnerving tale of life in a modern tower block running out of control.

'Living in high-rises required a special type of behavior, one that was acquiescent, restrained, even perhaps slightly mad. A psychotic would have a ball here.'

Welcome to the high-rise, a brand-new way of living designed for a modern world. Stretching forty floors into the sky, residents have everything they could wish for – from the brash filmmaker at the bottom to the lauded architect himself at the top. But when modern man of medicine Dr Robert Laing moves in, his grip on reason is soon tested to breaking point. As the foundations of civilisation itself begin to crumble, cocktail parties give way to brutal raids and once-luxurious amenities become arenas for violence in this unsettling orgy of barbarity and primal chaos.
