Synopsis:
Chaos is the English remake of critically acclaimed French director Coline Serreau's social drama revolving around a bourgeois French couple who accidentally witness the violent beating of a young prostitute (Rai) by her pimps. While the French woman (Streep) empathizes with the prostitute's suffering, her selfish husband disapproves of his wife's concern. Troubled by guilt, Streep's character traces the prostitute to the hospital where she is recovering from the beating and the two gradually develop a deep bond. The French woman helps the prostitute find a new life, and the prostitute helps the woman find a new identity -- she realizes that her life has been changed forever and she can never return to her selfish husband and son.
