Blind Spot

Lupa finds drug addict Gladki, who escaped from the hospital. She imprisons him in a rented room, hoping to get him off the needle. But inside the confined room, the distinction between the prisoner and the jailor is soon blurred. As creepy secrets come to light, Lupa struggles for her own freedom.
