Storyline

"The case is not solved, and it simply repeats itself"

An ordinary, everyday scene is transported to the scene of a bizarre, gruesome murder. An unreal world infiltrates the corners of everyday life. That eye, that man, kidnapped a woman, imprisoned and restrained her, assaulted and murdered her, and dismembered her body. But for the man, it was nothing more than an ordinary, unremarkable moment.
