Plot

Carpenter Sergio runs away and hides in a closet after his boss fired him. When the closet arrives at its buyer's house, he decides to stay there, hiding in his new home living with an unknown family.

Sinekatalog’s take

A creepy, offbeat thriller about a jobless carpenter who decides to live secretly inside a stranger's home. The premise is unsettling and darkly funny, mixing voyeurism with domestic unease. Ideal for fans of slow-burn psychological suspense.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
