Sam and Marta are in love. Unfortunately, Marta is unhappily married to a very powerful man. Marta's plan to murder him and run away with Sam is precarious at best. But Sam has another plan. And it all depends on the trunk. Bury your darkest secret within this unassuming chest, but beware. Its powers have caveats and contradictions, benefits and burdens. It is randomly deliberate, declaring that it will not be controlled. For every secret hidden within, there are tests and trials, tempting those who can least afford it to do the unadvisable: open the trunk. This taut, claustrophobic thriller takes place in a single motel room and lays the foundation for The Trunk- revealing just one of the many powers the mysterious trunk possesses.
