Bender’s life has hit a gloomy low at nineteen: he’s stuck in a dull suburban neighborhood, his parents barely speak to each other, and his only bright spots are his brother Thomas and his girlfriend Sesil. Then a mysterious package addressed to his mother arrives, and everything begins to shift. People close to Bender start behaving strangely, turning into unsettling “others.” At first, he manages to steer clear of them, but when Sesil begins to change, Bender is forced to make a difficult choice.
