SYNOPSIS

Written by Peter Morgan, 360 is inspired by Arthur Schnitzler’s play Reigen, an Austrian fin-de-siècle drama which also inspired Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut. Schnitzler’s play has been filmed many times, including Max Ophuls' 1950 film La Ronde. Reigen consists of short scenes between couples, shown before or after a sexual liaison. After each scene, one character from the pairing is then shown with another partner, who is then shown with another partner, and so on. Finally, the promiscuity comes full circle.
