A psychological horror film that uses a cursed mask as a gateway into surreal nightmare logic, exploring themes of madness, suicide, and the blurred line between curse and mental illness.

A young archaeologist believes he is cursed by a mask that causes him to have weird nightmares and possibly to murder. Before committing suicide, he mails the mask to his psychiatrist, Dr. Barnes, who is soon plunged into the nightmare world of the mask.
