SYNOPSIS
In, 1894, after finishing his medical studies, Richmond Portier finally joins doctor Marvolo in his isolated mansion. In between their research, Richmond’s moral principles are challenged by Marvolo’s unorthodox philosophies and Agnes’s glamour. What started as an academic pursuit in the branch of anatomy later unveils a psychological battle on the edges of morality.
Doctor Marvolo
Seamingly sympathetic, doctor Marvolo covers his mysterious endeavours with his intelligence and methodic behaviour. Naturally keeps an upper hand in conversations leveraged by his immense cultural capital. His philosophies often question the basic principles of morality. An obsession with cleanliness hints for a psychopathic mind.
Agnes
Physically very attractive, young and apparently pure of heart. She represents a challenge to Richmond’s morality.
Under the influence of doctor Marvolo, Agnes is cunning and lustful.
Richmond Portier
A young and ambitious medicine graduate. He is naturally clever, handsome and with a high cultural capital, which shapes his lust for success. His naiveness and poetic personality give space for doctor Marvolo’s ideals and philosophies, manipulate his moral grounds.
