After an accident puts a stop to her training,
a young introverted athlete moves in with her new
boyfriend who lives in a run down apartment block
in the Left Bank area of Antwerp. Her initial happiness
gradually turns to fear as she discovers the previous
tenant mysteriously disappeared and doubts start creeping
in about her enigmatic new boyfriend. On top of this,
when inexplicable thick black hairs start growing
out of her knee injury and a strange black hole appears
in the floor of one of the locker rooms in the basement,
she starts to doubt her own sanity.
