    • Synopsis
    • A tall, attractive stranger comes to a small Eastern European town and rents an apartment. At first he appears to be a photographer shooting startling black & white portraits on an antique camera, but soon the woman working at the old photo lab, her cousin, the journalist, and her grandfather begin to suspect that there is more to the photographs than meets the eye.

      The stranger possesses a mysterious object to which only he is immune. It cannot be shown to women, children, or anyone drunk or high on drugs. He takes a photograph of each man who views the object, capturing their faces which reflect a variety of shocked responses. The man does not know what the object is: perhaps it is the most gruesome thing in the world. Or the most beautiful. After viewing the object, no man can, or will, speak about what he saw.

      The stranger and the journalist become friends, and eventually the stranger falls in love with the woman. However, the woman, despite being warned, is drawn to view the object herself and the experience causes her to go mad. Will the man be able to save her? Will he lose his friendship with the journalist because of what has happened? Will losing the only woman that was able to breach his cold exterior cause him to lose his immunity?
