When the magnetic Paula, a woman with captivating green eyes, enters his life, his fragile illusion of control cracks, pushing him to obtain at all costs the ultimate piece that will complete his macabre collection.
What on the surface appears to be the work of a psychopath is actually the desperate cry of someone who collects eyes to confirm his existence.
