Paper houses

What happens when your dreams come true, only to open a gateway to unexpected darkness?

Petr, a theatre actor, accepts the role of a lifetime as Faust, a part conditional on him moving to Ostrava. He, his wife Anna, and their son Vašík settle into a house that is not only the fulfilment of Petr's dream, but also a place hiding dark secrets. The house, which once belonged to the musician Richard Roučný, gradually begins to interfere in their lives. Petr delivers stunning performances on stage, but at the same time, he descends into a whirlwind of temptation and personal demons.
Petr and Anna have a complicated past. They both grew up in a children's home, which is where they first met. Their bond has lasted for years and overcome numerous challenges, but now it is being tested by something stronger. While Anna struggles with her own health problems and fears about the house's strange atmosphere, Petr faces emotional turmoil and temptation from a colleague. The house becomes a mirror of their desires and fears, while unspoken questions about its past remain unanswered. Unusual events, such as the strange deaths of animals around the property, begin to intensify.
The story emphasises the theme of temptation and the price it exacts. Where does the desire for success end and the path to ruin begin? Will Anna and Petr manage to overcome the challenges that the house and their own decisions place in their path?
