When Spencer urges his unsuspecting friend, Aaron, to watch Salo, Pasolini's profoundly disturbing 1975 film, the horrifying experience rips into Aaron's sense of security and morality. Confused, betrayed, and disgusted, Aaron asks of his friend, "Why did you show that to me?" But Spencer's motives are much too complex for words.

After the lewd and frenetic Dance of the Seven Veils, and with the solemn pledge from the very lips of Herod himself that she could have whatever her heart desires up to half his kingdom, wanton and proud young Salomé comes before her king with an unreasonable demand. Beguiled by John the Baptist, and then scorned for the sake of his god, lascivious Salomé—encouraged by her mother, the vindictive, Herodias—commands that John be executed and his head delivered on a silver platter.

While serving life in prison, a young man looks back at the people, the circumstances and the system that set him on the path toward his crime.
