A psychologically unsettling character study of a vulnerable woman drawn into an ambiguous, fetishistic relationship with an enigmatic figure, told with deliberate opacity and unease.

When she is slightly hurt in the factory where she works, Iris quits her job and finds a new one as an assistant in a laboratory of a very peculiar kind. Without fully grasping what is at play around her, she gradually engages in a disturbing love affair with her enigmatic employer.
