Story
1981, Somewhere in Europe.
Eighteen-year-old Noah is haunted by the memory of his mother abandoning him as a child.
He lives with his father Leonard, a failed writer obsessed with collecting items related to “Dictator X.”
Noah wishes he would stop, but Leonard refuses to give up his strange obsession, even as they struggle financially.
One day, an auction invitation arrives, addressed to Leonard. Ignoring Noah’s protests, Leonard sets off for the old castle where the auction is to be held, promising to tell Noah everything once he returns.
But Leonard never comes home. With no way to contact him, Noah heads to the castle himself, determined to bring him home—only to witness something shocking.
Trapped inside the castle with the other guests, Noah decided to accept the Auctioneer's invitation, and take part in the auction himself.
