Life seems to be crumbling around him, but everything changes when, after a night of excess and sorrow, Stephen commits an unforgivable crime: he murders his own wife, who had been supporting him in his creative journey. Instead of facing the consequences, he decides to hide the body in the nearby river.
As the plot unfolds, Stephen becomes entangled in a web of deceit and desperate decisions. The atmosphere grows increasingly oppressive as his brother, who is also a writer and admires him, begins to suspect that something dark looms over Stephen's life. Guilt and paranoia begin to affect his mind, leading him into a state of madness that is reflected in his work.
The story turns into a tense game of manipulation and jealousy, where appearances deceive and relationships crumble. With each decision he makes, Stephen plunges deeper into an abyss from which there seems to be no return. The struggle between ambition and morality becomes a constant echo, as the secrets he harbors become increasingly difficult to maintain. It is a dark and fascinating journey that reveals the depths of human nature and what one is capable of doing to achieve success, even at the cost of life itself.
