A psychological horror that blurs the line between film and reality, using 1980s censorship anxieties and unresolved trauma to explore how images can haunt and destabilize the mind.

A screener at the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), who has earned an unsavory reputation for being the strictest censor of violent films, begins to spiral out of control after viewing a low-budget horror with similarities to the disappearance of her sister.
