Originally from Poland, Basia lives and works in London.

After a hypnotic session with her psychologist Edward Stanton she taps into a part of the mind that should never be meddled with.

With the natural balance of her existence becoming increasingly unstable, Basia's world becomes very strange and eventually spirals into a perpetual nightmare oscillating erratically around time and space.

A traumatic experience from her past combined with her fragmented and distorted present, push her mind and soul to it's limits and beyond.
