“Your Honour, you’ve got the wrong person”.
What if the odds were against you from the beginning? What if every moment was a trial for survival?
When conscientious journalist Josephine K is mysteriously charged and arrested for a crime she pleads not remembering; she is forcibly thrust into a world of chaos where an absurd reality thrives prosperously and where the Law determines your very fate, including your innocence.
As she embarks into this wonderland of bureaucratic absurdity, her mission in clearing her name faces opposition when encountered with various so-called “civilised” figures, who solely and loyally obey the system and thus, the Law.
WIth hidden forces surveillancing at every turn, K spirals into a state of powerlessness and paranoia as she grapples with her identity and her warped sense of reality.
Who truly is the invisible power? Is K really guilty or is it just a fabrication of a system that aims to control.
