Synopsis

Following his attempt to make a documentary based on the book of a deceased police officer, whose family refused to grant him the rights, Shackleton transforms his frustration into a deconstruction of this genre. A parody of Netflix's indistinguishable true crime shows, he uses deserted spaces as a backdrop to explore what could have been and was not, creating an unprecedented film essay that ironically describes the clichés and commonplaces of these types of projects.
