Taphead

A depressed young man is trying to cope with the loss of his wife. Since then, he's suffering illusive episodes of fear and despair and is seeing things that are not happening in reality. One day, he decides that things have to change drastically to get out of his misery. This decision triggers a chain of strange events that will change his life forever. He undergoes a journey into his subconscious. A journey of self-reflection and salvation, to overcome his isolation and fears. And finally - after being confronted with himself, totally consumed and broken - to be born again. (Sequel to the short movie/music video ''Myrrhman')
