This is the story of Regina. After undergoing brain surgery to remove a tumor, a young girl loses all facial expression, a condition that makes her the target of relentless bullying at school. One day, she's given a simple homework assignment: to research what she wants to be when she grows up. While searching for answers in the school library, she stumbles upon books on psychology and sociopathy, and something awakens inside her. She becomes obsessed with the idea of becoming a psychopath and decides to experiment on herself. What starts as a twisted personal project quickly spirals out of control. She manipulates, tests, and harms others under the guise of curiosity, but the consequences are real and deadly. Caught between her role as a perpetrator and the pain of becoming a victim herself, she ends up confined in a psychiatric prison. Years later, just when she believes the past is behind her, she's kidnapped by the brother of one of her former victims. In captivity, a dangerous bond begins to form, but she soon realizes that he might be even more disturbed than she ever was.
A psychological thriller about identity, obsession, and the blurred lines between control and chaos.
