A dark supernatural morality tale about the corrupting price of ambition, where a Faustian bargain with a severed hand leads inexorably toward damnation.

A struggling artist buys a talisman that gives him love, fame and wealth. The talisman is a severed left hand, and it works perfectly, in fact, magically. But of course there is nothing free in this world, and after one year the devil comes and asks for his due.
