Murder Party

In the shadow of Manhattan’s glittering skyline sits the Daguerre mansion, a sprawling, almost theatrical estate that has been the headquarters of a wildly successful board‑game empire for generations. Its rooms are a museum of eccentric taste, filled with elaborate game‑themed decor, secret passageways, and an atmosphere that feels part family home, part elaborate set piece. The house itself is a character, its opulent corridors and ornate chambers promising both inspiration and mystery.

Jeanne, a talented architect known for her meticulous eye and fearless approach to unconventional projects, receives a commission that seems tailor‑made for her skill set: to renovate this lavish, eccentric dwelling. She steps into a world where every wall whispers stories of past victories and playful rivalries, and where the family’s quirky habits blend with an unspoken reverence for legacy. As she surveys the mansion’s grand halls, she quickly senses that the renovation will be as much about navigating personalities as it is about restoring plaster and wood.

The atmosphere takes a sharp turn when the family patriarch, Cesar Daguerre, is found dead under puzzling circumstances. What began as a design challenge suddenly becomes a real‑life puzzle, pulling Jeanne into a delicate dance of observation and inference. The mansion’s intricate layout, once a canvas for her creative vision, now serves as a labyrinth of clues, and the eclectic household members each carry their own secrets and motives, turning the project into an unexpected investigation.

Against a backdrop of lingering elegance and uncanny quirkiness, the film balances the meticulous world of architecture with the tension of a classic whodunit. Jeanne must rely on her analytical mind, her instinct for detail, and an uncanny ability to read between the lines of both design and human behavior, inviting the audience to wonder what hidden truths lie behind the mansion’s polished surface.
