Iustitium

It arrived at 3:42 A.M. He tried to remove it. He learned to live with it. Then he became it.

19 min · Horror, Drama, Mystery

A man discovers an immovable, featureless entity in his hallway. Unable to remove it or flee, he learns to coexist with it. As weeks turn to months, terror calcifies into routine, routine into acceptance, and acceptance into contagion. A film that explores rootlessness, the anxiety of displacement, and the paralysis of being trapped in circumstances you cannot change.
