This adaptation of Mary Shelly's classic horror story transposes the original material to today's society.
A theatre troupe comes to town performing "Frankenstein" A young female reporter, who is investigating the legend, believes that the novel is not a fiction but the true story of a group of alchemists, founded by the young doctor Victor Frankenstein. In 1817, they managed to defeat mortality and return from the dead.
Interviewing the theatre troupe members, the reporter is confronted with the dark heroes of the novel, who appear in the city more alive than ever. Her investigations lead her to a universe of monsters and finally to a revelation about the secret of an eternal love that defies even death. But what is real and what is just her imagination? Who are these "actors"? Why have they come to her town? And who even is this young reporter?
