INDUCTION
The villa is in the middle of a mountain
landscape. Inside, it is full of design
objects while outside, it is surrounded by
labyrinths whose hedges seem to breathe
and where mysterious events take shape.
In this surreal place, a woman, a boy
and a shaman who knows no limits to
time and space cross paths. He seems to
be present in various places at the same
time; maybe he is a murderer with the
film power to freeze people.
