In an attempt to escape from a writer’s block, acclaimed novelist Max Madureira moves to a house near a small, isolated and awkward village. It doesn’t take long for the ideas to come out, but not quite the way he expected: as the writer feels like he’s been living among stories — and not people —, he comes across the mysterious emergence of typed pages in his desk, supposedly written by the previous resident of the house. That’s enough to make Max doubt about his creativity, his sanity and even his own existence.
