Chris falls from a ladder into an empty bath at a house he is renovating. When he wakes, everything seems normal, his tools are on the ground and the ladder is on its side. He is unsure. He rings his wife, Sam, asking her to pick him up as he thinks he has had an accident and doesn’t want to drive. As he goes to leave the building he is confronted with an apparition. At the end of a corridor, he sees an open door but before he can get to it, it slams shut.
Again, Chris finds himself waking in the empty bath. The tools on the floor are children’s plastic toys. He is unsettled. He tries to dial emergency services but there is no signal. On leaving the bathroom he finds himself on a different floor, lined with large paintings. The apparition races towards him from the other end of the corridor. He finds an exit leading to some stairs and tries to escape. Clambering down several flights of stairs he tries to get to the outside door but again it slams shut in front of him.
A third time Chris wakes in the bath, but everything is blood red. When he sees the tools have become jigsaw pictures, he kicks them away in a rage. On leaving the bathroom he passes through the apparition which gives him a jolt. He presses on, finding himself scrambling down twice as many flights of stairs, pursued by the Spector. Within steps of the ground floor, he grabs his chest him pain, collapsing to the floor. The open door beckons, so Chris attempts to crawl towards it, but he is pulled back into the house and again the outer door slams shut.
Sam races into the bathroom to find Chris unconscious in the tub. She struggles to pull him out, but after many tries, she manages to pull him onto the floor. She calls emergency services, gives them directions to the old house and follows their instructions to attempt to revive him. All seems hopeless and Sam’s emotions get the better of her. Fighting through tears she can’t give up and battles on to resuscitate Chris.
Two paramedics burst through the door and took over. After a time, Chris takes his first breath. Sam is relieved to see he is alive.

I love you

Directed by

Rafael Maria Friebe

Marcel and Carla's life would be in harmony if Marcel had not fallen ill with schizophrenia a year ago, which has been treated with tablets ever since. Unfortunately, the side effects of these tablets are so unpleasant for Marcel that he recently stopped taking them. As a result, a strong schizophrenic attack has occurred, in which Marcel falsely imagines that he has been cheated on by Carla several times with other men. In revenge, he has Carla bound and gagged and abuses her with a knife and with blows. However, he is not even aware of this, but hallucinates a harmonious loving coexistence with Carla. He is thus extremely split in personality. The film shows both dimensions of this split, the real and the hallucinated one. When a visitor, Janna, rings the doorbell, the hallucinating Marcel kindly lets her enter the apartment, even though he is covered in blood and Carla is badly battered in the living room. When Janna realizes this, she runs yelling out of the apartment to call the police. Marcel is annoyed and continues to talk to the hallucinated Carla, while the bound Carla is voiceless and distraught. When the hallucinated Carla asks Marcel if he doesn't love her, he reacts desperately and, crying on her lap, confesses his love for her. The real Carla takes this opportunity to grab a knife and plunges it into his back in self-defense, fearing for her life. This causes Marcel to rage, and he strangles Carla. In the meantime, the police have arrived in front of the house, where they are sent by Janna to Marcel and Carla's apartment.
Just before the first policeman reaches the apartment, Carla's ghost rises from her co**se and begins to terrify Marcel. The policeman enters the living room thinking that the knife-wielding screaming Marcel will attack him, but instead Marcel fights back against Carla's ghost, which the policeman cannot see. So it comes to a fatal shot against Marcel. Himself now a ghost in the realm of the dead, the confused Marcel is attacked again by Carla, who appears as a demonic avenging spirit, dragging her screaming victim into the depths.
