Sarah and her nine-year-old son Tim come out of a movie theatre and call a taxi to go home. The taxi driver is a man called Bob, with a hefty body and expressionless eyes. They will never reach their destination: Bob kidnaps them and takes them to his secluded house, where he kills the woman. He renames the boy Rabbit and raises him, keeping him chained. Nine years later, Rabbit is a teenager: he has studied anatomy on the books Bob gave him and he starts being impatient.

Declaration
film director
“We shot in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada for fifteen days. [...] I used the same crew I had on Surveillance. They were an incredibly dedicated, hard-working crew all the way down to the production assistants. Film is a collaborative medium with everyone working towards the same goal. [...] You get up in the morning, you go to work and you all work together to create a film with everyone having a common interest. They were a very brave and self-sacrificing crew.”
