    Brief synopsis

    One author has retreated to a secluded estate in the Lüneburg Heath to write her new novel, which is based on autobiographical, traumatic experiences. Strange incidents occur more and more and soon it is clear that she is being stalked by a man. He seems to know his way around her memories and pushes her to the edge of her physical and psychological limits. How far will she go in the end to free herself from the terror?
