Description

A haunted, unnamed actor known as the Thin Kid revisits the underground horror film that defined—and possibly destroyed—his life. In 1993, he joined aspiring filmmakers Cleo and Valentina to create an unsettling, violent movie that blurred the boundaries between performance and reality; decades later, he is drawn into a new attempt to bring the unfinished film back to the screen. Moving between screenplay excerpts, fractured memories, and the present day, the story steadily destabilizes the line between fiction and lived experience. With its layered structure and psychologically unnerving style, this is a provocative exploration of artistic obsession, trauma, complicity, and the making of monsters.
