“The guillotine of the soul is guilt.”
One year after a life-altering tragedy, Toma and Maria are trying to rebuild their relationship. Toma is consumed by guilt and memories, unable to break free from the past. In silence, he begins to be haunted by a monster only he can see. Maria struggles to help him, but her efforts hit a wall built by Toma's fear and silence. As the monster draws him deeper into its world, Toma gets lost between reality and obsession, and the bond between them slowly unravels.
