Special Effects

A filmmaker commits the perfect crime, then turns it into his next project, casting the victim's husband and a lookalike actress to reconstruct the murder. This hall-of-mirrors thriller dissects the violence of creation itself, trapping everyone in a lurid, self-consuming narrative. Obsession bleeds from the editing booth onto the streets, as the line between directing a performance and orchestrating a life dissolves in the chemical bath of celluloid.
