A quiet man lives above a bustling neighborhood, his life split between the world below and the shadowy sanctuary of the attic. When a neighbor reports strange noises and a missing person, a determined detective teams with a skeptical landlady to peel back the building’s ordinary veneer. Clues hide in dusty trunks, a torn photograph, and a diary that never should have been found. The attic, lit with stark high-contrast lighting, grows ever more labyrinthine as doors lead to half-truths and old grievances. The film weaves economical dialogue, rain on windowpanes, and the tactile sound of creaking floorboards into a taut sense of dread. As the investigation constricts the space, the audience learns that the attic is both sanctuary and snare—a place where a dangerous secret lives, guarded by fear and the weight of lived history. The final revelation lands with a cold noir sting: the truth may be hidden above, but it will pull the entire building into its orbit.
