Wife of Headless Man

Investigates Her Own Disappearance

Written by Yussef El Guindi
Directed by Lucien Oberleitner

A reporter experiences a chunk of missing time after interviewing a tech billionaire who hasn’t taken kindly to her negative articles about him. Was she drugged during the meal? How did she end up in a hotel room after meeting him in a restaurant? And if she was drugged, is that why, when she returns home, her husband appears as fully alive and functioning and headless?
