After The Wife (Liz Dowd, in red dress) has been seduced by The Thief, a devil has been released within her. She tells her Husband (Mathias Becker, center) that she will be having no more of his faults, annoyances or demands that she's endured in this marriage. She belittles every aspect of their life together before demanding The Thief (Jared Oxborough, right) to kill him. After the Husband's death, the Medium (Claire Wellin) translates the tale to the police interrogators.

It is based on three short stories by Japanese writer Ryunosuke Akutagawa and unfolds like a classical Japanese screen painting.
