Synopsis

Edward, a man suffering from neurofibromatosis, undergoes facial reconstructive surgery to escape the isolation caused by his physical deformities. After the surgery, he becomes obsessed with a theater production based on his life. The lead actor, Oswald, is playing a character inspired by Edward’s former self, which causes Edward to identify with him. Edward starts following Oswald and obsessively watching rehearsals. He blurs the line between reality and the play, growing more attached to the character Oswald is portraying than to his new life. This obsession worsens, leading Edward to interfere in Oswald’s personal life. As Edward’s fixation escalates, his mental state deteriorates.
