Director - Rolf de Heer Year - 2003 Country - Australia Genre - Drama, Thriller, Revenge Rating - R18 Cast - Gary Sweet, Helen Buday, Bogdan Koca, Samantha Knigge etc. It's Steve's (Gary Sweet) birthday and he's just
been promoted at the office. In a good mood, he goes home to his family
expecting to celebrate. Instead, he finds an empty suburban home and
videotape labeled 'Play Me.' The tape begins with his loving wife
(Helen Buday) providing birthday wishes and quickly segues, to his
pleasant surprise, into a striptease. But surprise turns into shock
when he sees a gun pointed at her head. As the tape plays, his
seemingly ordinary life unravels into a nightmare of mind games and
revenge. Along with two brilliant lead performances, acclaimed auteur
Rolf de Heer brings to us his visionary new twist on the psychological
thriller. Address: Tagged with Rolf de Heer, Australia, Alexandra's Project, 2003, Australian Film, Drama, Thriller, Revenge, Gary Sweet, Helen Buday, Bogdan Koca, Samantha Knigge, Challenging, Disturbing, R18,comments & reviews

Ok first of all if you are going through any sort of relationship dramas then avoid this movie at all costs. Alexandra's Project is a very clever film it discusses relationships, power, gender roles, security and the use of media in a very sneak up behind you and wack you over the head kind of way. Disturbing and challenging, a very difficult watch but possibly quite rewarding.
