A nine-year-old girl finds a mysterious VHS tape in the belly of a wild boar. While her parents deny its existence, she develops a real obsession to see the contents. Dennis, the neurotic TV host of a local cooking show, suffers from an imaginary skin disease. Driven by the incomprehension of those around him, he increasingly loses himself in a persecution complex. Jason, the cameraman of the cooking show, dreams of filming his horror movie project. The prerequisite, however, is that he finds the perfect scare within 48 hours. However, the budding filmmaker quickly gets lost in the search and visibly mixes his dreams with reality. This stroke of genius from cult director Quentin Dupieux (RUBBER, WRONG, WRONG COPS) is a witty play on reality that knots the brain twists with relish!
