In a surreal dream that combines the everyday with the unsettling, a woman embarks on a psychological journey through her own mind. It all begins when she returns home after a walk. Upon entering, her surroundings transform into a labyrinth of symbols and tensions. A mysterious elderly man wearing a mask seems to be lurking, quickly becoming a symbol of the fear and anxiety that haunt her.

Every small object in her home, like a knife or a mirror, becomes a doorway to a new reality, where the boundaries between dream and wakefulness blur. As she explores, the woman encounters a version of herself watching from the shadows, suggesting the internal struggle she faces. The repeated encounters with the masked figure lead her into a spiral of self-discovery and paranoia, penetrating further into the dark corners of her psyche.

Each scene is imbued with symbolism, creating an atmosphere that oscillates between the dreamlike and the disturbing, as the protagonist seeks to unravel the nature of her own reality. With an innovative use of editing and cinematography, this masterpiece of experimental cinema challenges the viewer to question the perception of reality and identity. As the plot unfolds, a deep and complex exploration of human consciousness and the fears that often lie beneath the mundane surface is revealed.
