A masterpiece vanishes. A city holds its breath.
English


PLOT : A man named Orpheus wakes to a nightmare: a priceless Caravaggio masterpiece has been stolen from St. John’s Cathedral in Valletta while under his watch. With the city on edge and the local police under immense pressure, a young detective from Washington is brought in to assist with the high-stakes recovery. However, as the investigation into the empty frame unfolds, the layers of the crime begin to peel away, revealing that nothing is as it seems. Drawn deeper into a web of secrets, the search for the missing painting transforms into a journey through the illusions and ghosts that have long haunted Orpheus’s own life.
