During a mysterious event, an insect makes its way in the head of our protagonist. The vibrations caused by the critter make the man lose his grip on reality. Trying to escape his fears, the boundaries between time, space, reality and dream slowly erode. Beautifully shot on 16mm, this experimental horror film serves as an allegory for the fear and constant threat of war we currently experience.
