Luciferous Page #4

Synopsis: In a high-rise apartment young parents Alex and Mahsa live with their seven-year-old daughter Mina. Everything about the family is completely normal, uncomfortably real: Their home, their jobs, her school, the way they hold and love each other. The line between fact and fiction is blurred because THEY ARE A REAL family. Until completely normal turns into what they fear the most. Alex's injury opens the door to a malevolent force that attacks and dismantles the family one person at a time: A violent aggressor determined to prove that possession is real, unconscionably disturbing and very different from how it's depicted in the movies.
Director(s): Mahsa Ghorbankarimi (co-director), Alexander Gorelick (co-director)

- What the f***, baby,

what are you talking about?

What the f*** is this?

What the f*** happened here?

F*** it, I'm calling the police.

- Alex hold on, let's

talk about this.

- What the f*** is

there to talk about?

We had a f***ing break in.

What the hell.

- How does that make

sense, somebody broke in?

We been home all night.

- Baby what are

you talking about?

God that's completely

unacceptable.

- Sir, at this

point, there's nothing more

that we can do.

- It's just completely

unacceptable.

How much more evidence

do you guys need

about the break in?

- Sir, sir, you

need to calm down.

- Oh my god, you

know what officer?

Thank you, thank you officer.

I'm perfectly calm

considering the situation.

- Baby.

- Yeah, now, so in

your mind, I did this,

no other possibilities, right?

Husbands a lunatic.

- Alex, you just had a

big trauma on the head.

The doctors already told us.

You might have times that you

do things you can't remember.

Baby, that doesn't

make you a lunatic.

But we have to go to

the doctor anyways,

they have to do something,

because we can't have

incidents like this anymore.

I love you so much, baby.

We're gonna go

through this together.

- He loved me, he

would never escape.

You guys just sent

him away on purpose.

- Minishka, you know

that's not true.

We would never do such a thing.

- But daddy already

said he stinks.

- Mommy, mommy.

Mommy!

- What is it Minishka?

What is it mama, did you

have a nightmare, again?

- Uh uh, daddy woke me up.

- Daddy is asleep.

- Daddy!

- Daddy is sleeping

Mina, go back to bed.

- No, he was here,

he woke me up.

- Daddy was asleep.

You just go back to bed.

- I want to see daddy.

- See Minishka, daddy is asleep.

- Is Mina okay?

- Alex, where were you?

- I was in the wash room,

what are you guys doing up?

- She wanted to see you.

- To see me?

So after my daughter's

pet rabbit was killed,

which I was blamed for, I

went to the doctor's office.

And what did they do?

They prescribed new

medication, again.

Now they have this new

theory about my condition.

They think that the injury

that I suffered might

have been self inflicted, and

now, since I'm doing these

video blogs, they're

recommending that I use

different filters, so

here I am in x-ray mode,

because they think that if

I play the videos back to

myself it might help me

to regain my memory about

the incident.

They say that maybe it'll seem

like I'm hearing information

told back to me,

by someone else.

- Oh, what is this smell?

Mina, you're sleeping

on the floor mama.

Come on Minishka,

something's stinking.

Have to get up, I

don't know mama.

- Why do you keep
