Obsession (2021)

A man is driving on a remote road through dense forest. He seems to be looking for a specific spot, as his glance at a map reveals. Meanwhile - at a not too distant time in the past - an old man is sitting in an attic and writing on a typewriter about his memories of a hot summer day long ago: Viktor and Marie seem newly in love. On an excursion they row on a small boat into the beautiful and untouched nature of a river and swamp landscape. While bathing they get closer until Viktor finally leads them to a hidden clearing for a picnic. Then something unexpected happens. But the old man suddenly stops typing and before he can describe the further events, he leaves the attic and rushes out of the gate of an old and dilapidated villa. Meanwhile, the man in the car has reached his destination. It is winter, the trees are bare and the tall grass has withered. However, as he reads from the lines of a book called "Obsession," it becomes clear that he is in that very place in the book the old man was writing and what secret is hidden behind the lines as he recounts the events at that point at which the old man had left off.
