“The director submerges the audience in a surreal world that for some tormented souls might be grim reality.”
In Bas’s world, the voices desperately trying to contact him amount to little more than background noise. Sometimes they breach the decaying rooms he inhabits, but they fail to break down the walls surrounding him. That leaves Bas adrift in a twilight zone between delusion and reality, between response and isolation.

A reflection on human life in all its beauty and cruelty, its splendor and banality, guided by a Scheherazade-esque narrator. Inconsequential moments have the same significance as historical events. Simultaneously an ode and a lament, presents a kaleidoscope of all that is eternally human, an infinite story of the vulnerability of existence.

After participating in a séance, young Laura begins to behave strangely. Alarmed, her parents ask Father Olmedo, one of the few exorcists authorized by the Vatican to intervene in cases of demonic possession, for help.
