Actor Diego kidnaps Sarah for company during strict lockdown, and a kind of relationship grows between them. He was an awkward child raised by his father, she an only child of separated parents.
The abduction theme makes for moral ambiguity. Diego is not really interested in anyone else - his screen and stage success has made him self-centred. We don't discover much about Sarah, but she is intelligent, insightful and compassionate.
Her attempts to escape are laughable. She enjoys his cooking and keeps his house clean. They act out scenes from his favourite films, and he interacts with his expatriate father in the US.
There are plot holes - neighbouring houses are too close for Covid to provide the necessary isolation; fresh food seems to appear from nowhere; post is being delivered; but the characters are likeable despite Diego's narcissism, and he has a Friends front door.
That's about it, but it is charming in a way.
