Plot

A doctor arrives at a mentally unstable house, looking to reveal the truth of a famous writer, Jonathan Swift. Swift is surrounded by actors playing out the life in the house, somehow causing his mental illness and even slightly lost his grip on reality (so do other people think). The summary of this challenging story to comprehend is that the movie is about coping mentally with what is actually going on around you.
