THE SICILIAN -- Ricky Delgado strikes a devil's bargain with a blood 'Build my temple and bring me the souls of damaged people, and you will see what rewards I give. THE COURTESAN -- Elizabeth makes her living from men's desire. With a flick of the switch in her head, she feels no pain, no hate, no sorrow, no joy. THE ARTIST -- Anis takes to painting as an outlet for his rage. His artist's eye knows his subjects before they know themselves, and he paints them all, a gallery of broken people. Can they escape the deadly web of decadence and sin?
