A deeply disturbing, philosophically ambitious descent into the mind of a serial killer who views his murders as artistic expression, framed as a confessional narrative that blurs the line between aesthetics and atrocity.

Failed architect, engineer and vicious murderer Jack narrates the details of some of his most elaborately orchestrated crimes, each of them a towering piece of art that defines his life's work as a serial killer for twelve years.
