T.T. Syndrome

The night has settled over an aging Turkish bath, its steam‑filled chambers and narrow, tile‑slicked corridors humming with the ghosts of forgotten rituals. The building’s dim lanterns cast trembling shadows that flicker against ancient stone, while the faint sound of water echoing through the plumbing feels like a distant, unsettled lullaby. Beneath the surface, a lingering dread hints at something far more sinister than the ordinary creaks of an old structure, as if the very walls are waiting for darkness to reveal their secret.

Into this claustrophobic world step a disparate group seeking something they cannot name. Teodora, a determined young woman, arrives with her boyfriend Vaki, their tension palpable as they navigate the labyrinthine rooms. They are joined by Tina and Sale, friends whose uneasy camaraderie masks hidden anxieties. Their purpose is desperate, tied to a risky exchange with the enigmatic dealers Cane and Sleš, whose presence adds a volatile edge to the uneasy atmosphere. The only other regulars are a weary attendant, a muted drunk, and the unsettling figure of Magistar Đorđević, whose quiet menace lingers in every corner.

The film paints a tone of relentless suspense, where ordinary fear is amplified by the knowledge that a rare neurological condition—referred to as T.T. Syndrome—spawns a predator whose sociopathic impulses turn the night into a hunt. The bathhouse becomes a character in itself, its steam‑laden hallways and echoing chambers creating a sense of being watched from unseen depths. Each footstep reverberates, each whispered murmur amplifies, and the group finds themselves caught in a tightening circle of paranoia and curiosity, wondering how long they can stay ahead of the unseen.

As the night deepens, the audience is left with a palpable feeling that something ancient and cruel is prowling just beyond the reach of light, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. The stakes are hinted at, but the true nature of the danger remains deliberately obscured, inviting viewers to linger in the unsettling space between dread and discovery.
