Year: 2015

Country: UK

Plot: In 1912 pompous industrialist Arthur Birling, who has hopes of a knighthood, his superior wife Sybil and young son Eric are celebrating the engagement of daughter Sheila to eligible Gerald Croft when they are visited by blunt Inspector Goole. He tells them of the suicide of a young woman named Eva Smith and though they all claim not to have known her the inspector demonstrates that each in their own way contributed to her downfall, by having her dismissed from work or, in the young men's cases, having sexual relationships and then abandoning her. After Goole has left the youngsters feel ashamed and the engagement is halted but Arthur Birling, doubting the inspector's authority, rings the local police station. This is the prelude to a double shock which will lead to the family's humiliation and ruin. The wealthy Birling family is holding a celebratory dinner party when an unexpected guest, Inspector Goole, comes and interrupt them to investigate the recent suicide of a local young woman. He interrogates each member of the party, thereby revealing the possibility that all of them unintentionally played a role in the tragedy.
