1975. Jay, an eighteen year old who appears ordinary but harbours a dangerous, uncontrollable compulsion. By night, he prowls quiet suburban neighbourhoods, driven by urges he neither fully understands nor can suppress. What begins as trespassing and voyeurism slowly escalates into a disturbing pattern of crimes that terrorise the community. Raised in isolation with a distant military father and an overwhelmed mother, Jay’s neglected childhood fuels his deviance. As a teenager, his thrill-seeking manifests in strange burglaries - not for theft, but for control. Soon, reports of sexual assaults surface, signalling that Jay has crossed a point of no return. Detectives Shoore and Remming lead the hunt for the elusive “Marcavillian Hunter,” but Jay adapts quickly, evading capture despite near-misses and a chance encounter that goes unnoticed. Hoping to escape his impulses, Jay joins the military - only to return more dangerous than before. His crimes culminate in a calculated provocation and a tragic confrontation that leaves the case unresolved. Decades later, Jay lives free, convinced he has outrun his past. But unseen eyes still watch. A chilling psychological crime drama about obsession, evasion, and the banality of evil.
