Blood Bath

In a dimly lit town where bohemian cafés flicker beside crumbling stone, an isolated art studio looms beneath an ancient bell tower. Within its shadowed walls works Antonio Sordi, a tormented painter whose canvases are drenched in macabre obsession. By daylight he moves among beat‑driven poets and aspiring models, searching for the perfect muse to capture the darkness that haunts his imagination. When the sun fades, a restless thirst awakens within him, turning his creative compulsion into something far more primal.

The city’s creative undercurrent offers a fragile sanctuary for Antonio, but it also mirrors his own inner turmoil. He is drawn to a striking woman whose presence evokes a lost love, a figure who bears an uncanny resemblance to a haunting memory from his past. Unaware that she carries a connection to one of the victims his nocturnal self has pursued, he attempts to forge a tender relationship, hoping art might redeem the hunger that pulses beneath his skin.

Even as he courts this enigmatic stranger, an unsettling echo reverberates through the underworld of his studio—a black pit of horror where the screams of the unseen seem to linger like a lingering perfume. The atmosphere crackles with the sensual tension of midnight brushes against canvas, the muted thrum of jazz, and the ever‑present, though unspoken, dread that something lurks just beyond the edge of the visible world.

Antonio’s dual existence—artist by day, creature of the night—creates a fragile balance between beauty and terror. The film swirls between the seductive glow of studio lights and the oppressive shadows of an unseen abyss, inviting the audience to wonder whether salvation can be found in pigment and romance, or if the darkness will inevitably consume the light he so desperately seeks.
