•A deaf-mute girl is accidentally locked inside the film studios where she works. During the night, she notices movements in one wing of the warehouse, decides to go see what is happening, and discovers that two men and a girl are filming a movie. At first, it seems like a usual amateur pornographic film, but soon things change: one of the two men begins to hit the girl until he kills her. The poor deaf-mute girl watches everything without the strength to react, then she is discovered but manages to escape from the studios before the two tormentors take her. But now she knows too much, and many want her dead. An intriguing story for a film that starts off very well (watch the opening sequence, when the protagonist witnesses the filming of the alleged snuff film) but then inexorably loses its way, taking on a strange, albeit inappropriate, comic vein in the second part. It is not clear why the director wanted to insert semi-comic elements in a film with absolutely dramatic content. What a shame, because if well developed, it could have been a great film.
