    • After the end of his marriage and the loss of his job, Junior (Marat Descartes) returns to his father’s (Antonio Fagundes) house. But this isn’t his childhood house anymore. A young tenant, Bruna (Sandy Leah), is renting his room and the environment feels oppressive and unfriendly. In the small back room, Junior finds strange objects that used to belong to his mother, including a mysterious cryptographed message. Certain that understanding this message will help him unlock the mystery to his past and his present, Junior becomes obsessed with his family’s history, at the same time that mysterious events start to happen around the household.
