Diana, the ethereal, larger-than-life feminist commune leader, prepares Marion to become the vessel for all of the rage and suffering of the commune – and of women everywhere.
`
Marion and the other women on the commune take their revenge on Chuck and Howie as scapegoats for the sins of mankind?
`
But will their brutal justice resolve the seemingly endless cycle of violence, or will it continue until it devours the entire island-and perhaps even the entire world?
