Synopsis
"The Engagement" is a complex and fascinating love story set in contemporary London. Dario is a mysterious motorbike courier who falls in love with a girl who is engaged to be married but he cannot escape his horrifying experiences in war-torn Yugolsavia.

A Co-production with Cornwall Films

John Duigan says: "The Engagement tells the story of a man struggling to come to terms with the brutal events of his youth. It is also a study in contrasts of two people from very different worlds, who briefly, by chance, come together. Angie has had a charmed life, her horizons are narrow, she has no inkling of the traumas that have shaped Dario's character. But for him, each day is a search for reasons why he should keep living.
