Terror grips the streets of London when an unknown murderer targets the blind, leaving a gruesome calling card. The crimes resonate with 11-year-old Lucas (Ben Keyworth), whose eerie set of circumstances -- his mother is blind; his father is a police officer working on the case -- causes his imagination to unravel dangerously. Is this murderous pattern the product of a boy's tortured, fertile creativity, or are these inexplicable acts actually occurring?

Debut of Mark People (co-writer of Bertolucci's Last Emperor) is a borderline pretentious cerebral thriller, aiming at delving into the inner workings of the mind, but acting by young protag Keyworth and James Fox and Fanny Ardant as his parents is good.
