James and Amy are in a hard spot; someone tries to build up their tension having bizarre events happening to them. Nothing serious – the alarm going off too soon, the CD starts playing all by itself – that slowly turns the tension into anger. Thus, when Amy suddenly disappears, James thinks its her payback. Meanwhile the weird accidents continue happening, more and more gruesome, and the man starts understanding there’s something going on behind the disappearance of his wife. “I was amused with the idea of making a movie about someone, without that person knowing the movie was being made. The notion of hidden cameras appealed to me. So did the idea of subversively toying with someone’s life. [...] What I had in mind was something much more lo-fi than The Truman Show, something that anyone with some small cameras and a lot of time on their hands could do, something that locked into the society’s reluctant acceptance that privacy is now a privilege, not a right.”
