Boston is being terrorized by a series of seemingly random murders of women. Based on the true story, the film follows the investigators path through several leads before introducing the Strangler as a character. It is seen almost exclusively from the point of view of the investigators who have very few clues to build a case upon.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A procedural descent into mounting dread as Boston detectives chase an invisible killer through a maze of false leads and psychological dead ends. The film's experimental visual style and immersion in investigative frustration create an atmosphere of creeping helplessness as the city grips with fear.
