[edit] Plot summary
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
A man recently released from an asylum is facing his own inner demons as he is flooded by a memory of a murderer in the asylum during his time there. The story tells itself in two parallel parts: one of the stories is during his time in the asylum, all a memory slowly bringing itself back to life; the other story takes place after he is released, and he feels compelled to author a book on the events surrounding that murder. He has no paper, so he writes his story on the wall and is constantly challenged with tedious interruptions.
