DESCENT is about revenge and also about the downward spiral that a young woman endures as a result of being sexually violated. Na�ve college girl Maya (Rosario Dawson) meets oily college boy Jared (Chad Faust) at a frat party. He pursues her with roses, an expensive dinner, and tedious conversation. When she accompanies him home after an evening out, he takes the opportunity to date rape her.
Months go by, and when we next see Maya, she's got a bad haircut and a blank expression, and she's working as a clothing folder in a pretentious boutique run by a pretentious woman. But at night, Maya seeks out dangerous clubs where people take drugs and smoke cigarettes openly. She meets muscular Latin pansexual Adrian (Marcus Patrick), and together they engage in all manner of uninspired debauchery. Lured by club DJ Adrian, she awakens to a cold and vicious new strength. But will Maya's downward spiral consume and destroy her - or will she be saved by its power? Find out! The Descent is presented in anamorphic, closed-captioned, color, Dolby, DVD-Video, NTSC, surround sound, and widescreen format.
