The Uncanny Shadows

The film stars a paranoid individual as they sit and contemplate in their room, late on an eerie night. They are alone, though they do not believe that. They are an extreme Nyctophobe and Scopophobe; a paranoid individual who has spent many a night in this same situation. Unable to sleep, paralysed from obsessively observing their surroundings. This film follow's their decent into said paranoia - as we see a range of their emotions such as fear, anger and despair - all while their experience is documented by a narrator.
