As they grapple with their surreal predicament, the film unfolds as a chilling exploration of identity and consumerism, where the mundane becomes a source of horror.

And to this end, they visit a real estate agency where they are received by a strange sales agent, who accompanies them to a new, mysterious, peculiar housing development to show them a single-family home. There they get trapped in a surreal, maze-like nightmare.
