Mumbai: Lionsgate Play will premier the crime thriller drama series The Pact on 11 June. Directed by Rebecca Johnson and Eric Styles, the six-episode series stars Abbie Hern, Julie Hesmondhalgh, Laura Fraser, Eiry Thomas, and Heledd Gwynn as friends with a common agenda of acrimony towards their functional team leader.
The Pact revolves around the lives of five colleagues who share similar concerns regarding their current boss. The five make common cause of their vindictive feelings, and abduct their unconscious boss, taking him into the woods. While they had planned to click his pictures in a semi undressed state to be circulated on social media and made to go viral, to leave him embarrassed, things didn't go as per their plans.
When the friends next return to the woods to check on him, they find his cold lifeless body introducing criminal intrigue into the story plot. They make a pact on what has to be done next. The unexpected moments with twists and turns throughout the night play out for the major part of the six-part teleseries.
Magnificent locations, right from the chilling scenes in the woods to the warmth of the brewery all form a part of the unfolding drama of entanglement and secrets along with the suffering repercussions that follow.
