Acting Psycho
An ambitious but struggling actress, Malik, hires an intense and unorthodox acting coach, Sparks, to help her land the role of a lifetime: a complex, psychopathic killer. Desperate to find the "truth" in her performance, Malik dives deep into the brutal character's psychology under Sparks's demanding guidance. What begins as a transformative rehearsal in the privacy of her home slowly blurs the lines between method acting and madness, as the pursuit of artistic perfection takes a dark and irreversible turn, forever changing the price of fame.
