Film Synopsis
A troubled young man named Martin believes himself to be a vampire, though his compulsion for blood is rooted as much in psychological trauma as in possible supernatural forces. Taken in by a deeply religious relative who views him as cursed, Martin struggles between his violent urges and a desperate desire for human connection. His descent into alienation and obsession blurs the line between horror and tragedy.
