An army of phantom filmmakers destroys communication systems in order to restore film’s revolutionary power, following the example of the Kantorian pantheon’s filmography. In retaliation, the state destroys every existing film and converts movie theaters into barracks. This marks the death of film. The Battle of Algiers and The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie perform its funeral dirge. In search of the vanished magic screen, Istvan Kantor praises the Sunday screenings of his childhood in the darkness conducive to dreams but also to conspiracy. This tribute to cinema is a necklace of videographic pearls worn on the shivering skin of its victim a few seconds before impact.

The film tells the story of documentary filmmaker Michael King (Shane Johnson), who doesn’t believe in God or the Devil. Following the sudden death of his wife, Michael decides to make his next film about the search for the existence of the supernatural, making himself the center of the experiment – allowing demonologists, necromancers, and various practitioners of the occult to try the deepest and darkest spells and rituals they can find on him – in the hopes that when they fail, he’ll once and for all have proof that religion, spiritualism, and the paranormal are nothing more than myth. But something does happen. An evil and horrifying force has taken over Michael King. And it will not let him go.
