In a remote countryside cottage, Dan works as a pest exterminator, tasked with clearing the infestation plaguing the area. Little does he know, his mundane job will lead him down a path of profound introspection and haunting discoveries. As Dan carries out his duties, he starts to experience persistent encounters with a mysterious voice. Intrigued and unsettled, he embarks on a journey to trace the origin of this enigmatic presence. In his relentless pursuit, Dan unravels layers of his own memories, delving into the depths of his psyche. With each step, however, his mental fortitude begins to crumble, and his sense of self becomes corroded. The voice guides Dan through a labyrinth of his own consciousness, blurring the boundaries between reality and illusion. As he uncovers buried secrets and confronts long-forgotten traumas, his perception of the world around him becomes distorted. The voice's incessant presence infiltrates his every thought, eroding his sanity and transforming him into a mere vessel for its existence. Caught in a downward spiral, Dan grapples with the disintegration of his identity. The line between his own voice and that of the enigmatic presence blurs beyond recognition. He becomes consumed by the very essence of the voice, losing touch with his former self and succumbing to its irresistible allure.
