Gabriel (Maximilien Poullein), an alcoholic and agoraphobic painter struggles to cope with his nights, filled with ultra-realistic nightmares. Nina (Prisca Silie), a friend of his, assuming all of the painter's issues are linked to his addiction to alcohol, decides to assist him with his forced coming off. This is when Gabriel starts being subjected to intense artistic trances during which he inevitably paints portraits of women. Women who are inevitably found, every next day, raped and murdered.
