Plot:Cillian works as a doorman in a New York City apartment building. Maybe it's not the best job in town, but honestly, he wouldn't change it for the world. Because this way, he has a chance to really get to know the residents of the building, their movements, and their habits. From his position, he can easily monitor their comings and goings; even study their lives, discovering their weak points, and their secrets. If he wanted to, he could exert his control over them, manipulating them as if he were God, rummaging about in their lives, and opening old wounds; all without raising the slightest suspicion. Because this is one of Cillian's weaknesses; he likes to hurt people. He likes finding just the best way to cause pain and suffering around him. This is his particular game; his secret.
And lately, he has narrowed in on a very special target: Clara, the young woman who rents out number 8-B; always so lovely looking, so cheerful and full of life. Cillian has set himself a challenge: to wipe that smile Clara wears every morning off her face. And he's prepared to do whatever it takes to accomplish it. Cillian has spent weeks observing her with singular attention, taking note of her every movement, analyzing each detail. Little by little, his dangerous game becomes even more so. Cillian has started to sneak into her apartment at night while she sleeps so he can snoop through her things, getting to know the most intimate particulars of her life, and eavesdrop on her conversations with her friends, her family and her boyfriend. Cillian even drugs her as she slumbers and sleeps by her side. He embraces Clara's inert body like some kind of secret lover as he plans his next attack. But it doesn't take long for things to get complicated. A little girl who is one of the neighbours suspects Cillian and has taken to blackmailing and threatening him.
Then Clara's boyfriend appears out of the blue, coming to her apartment in the middle of one of Cillian's nocturnal visits. Cillian starts to make little mistakes that could prove fatal. Cillian's game just may turn against him. It's getting unpredictable, and too dangerous and if he's not careful, Clara's life won't be the only one to turn into a living hell.
