If you're a fan of psychological mysteries and meta narratives about creativity, this is a clever premise that deserves your attention—the premise of mysterious typed pages and a writer questioning his sanity has real intrigue. That said, without any critical consensus or cast recognition to lean on, this feels like a gamble that could either be a hidden gem or an experimental misfire, so only dive in if you're in the mood for something weird and literary.
Plot
In an attempt to escape from a writer’s block, acclaimed novelist Max Madureira moves to a house near a small, isolated and awkward village. It doesn’t take long for the ideas to come out, but not quite the way he expected: as the writer feels like he’s been living among stories — and not people —, he comes across the mysterious emergence of typed pages in his desk, supposedly written by the previous resident of the house. That’s enough to make Max doubt about his creativity, his sanity and even his own existence.
