Three distinct narratives converge as a bereaved widower grapples with his troubled past, a husband's connection with his wife's mysterious cat is pushed to its limits, and a skilled hypnotist manipulates the final seconds of a man's life.

A cinematic adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's works, weaving three interconnected tales of mystery and suspense.
