DirectorActorsSynopsisGeorge, host of a television show focusing on literature, receives videos shot on the sly that feature his family, along with disturbing drawings that are difficult to interpret. He has no idea who has made and sent him the videos.
Progressively, the contents of the videos become more personal, indicating that the sender has known George for a long time.
George feels that he and his family are being threatened, but because the threat is not explicitly stated, the police refuses to get involved.
Clues gradually begin to accumulate indicating that the videos come from a person upon whom George clearly inflicted a terrible injustice during his childhood.
What happened back then? Just what does the person behind the videos want?
As George confronts his own past, his tidy, cosy life comes into question. Production photos (5)
