Working extremely hard to keep his hotel afloat, Paul begins hearing voices in his head. Convinced that his wife has been unfaithful, he begins to see every male guest as a potential threat. What follows is Paul's downward spiral into the madness of deranged jealousy where he finally discovers that hell is not a state of mind – hell is himself.

i love how the film never really confirmed the infidelity. the paranoia just keeps feeding itself until it becomes unbearable to watch.
such a sick film. im never getting married to an insecure person 😭 our dates should include us getting mental health checkups together!!
