Strange Wall

2011 · 26 min

A slow-burning, uneasy descent into paranoia, where ordinary apartment life curdles into quiet dread and unsettling dreams.

Overview: A young architect starts to receive letters addressed to the previous owner of the apartment he’s renting, and neighbours start to complain to noice he’s making at night, even though he knows he is very quiet. He has very disturbing dreams about a man being in this house while he is asleep.
How it feels: Eerie, tense, melancholic and dark. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, obsession, identity, madness
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
