important to him and he broke up with her.

He lived with his illness trying to get into a relationship

with Judith, but she left him because she could not bear his

behavior, behavior changes and treatment of

her.

Sam felt that he was alone, and misunderstood, he could not

overcome illness without help.

He was in treatment with a psychiatrist, but he did not feel

that he improved with the consultations, he felt that the doctor

Alexander treated him with indifference and that made him very

nervous, every time he went to the consultation.

One year after the death of Sam, Judith and the Doctor

Alexander, receive an invitation to visit a

palace in the city, where they will be greeted by the

Sam and Emma's partner will show them something they don't know

of this place, revenge and punishment made the

people who did not help him in life.


Our Review

Was it Emma who tries to avenge Sam’s death or Sam himself using Emma to avenge both his girl friend as well as his psychiatrist? Does he feel betrayed due to the condition he was in? This film is a rare combination of Psychological drama as well as horror. But there is not much substantial justification to prove the Doctor as well as Judith to be wrong and deserve to die. Cinematography, audio effect, direction, graphics, editing and especially acting deserves appreciation. Lot of effort has been put to achieve perfection and quality and it is clearly visible.
