Psychologist Dr Magnus Paul is tasked with the patients of Dortmund Asylum - nine criminally insane souls hidden from the world due to the extremity of their acts. Magnus has six weeks to prove them sane for transfer to a maximum-security prison, or label them as incurable and recommend a death sentence under a new government act. As Magnus delves into the darkness of the incarcerated minds, his own sanity is challenged. Secrets squeeze through the cracks of the asylum, blurring the line between reality and nightmare, urging Magnus towards a new life of crime... The rural western town of Dortmund and its inhabitants are the backdrop to the mayhem on the hill. It's Silence of the Lambs meets Shutter Island in this tale of loss, fear and diminishing hope.
