The premise
In the 70s Matteusz Gdula invented an acting method that was supposed to make every actor “shine”. Still, lots of his students die mysteriously and Gdula commits suicide. His method gets banned. Now: Stella, an ambitious, but rather untalented drama student, gets accepted at the „Matteusz Gdula“-school. When she bears witness to some strange occurrences, she gets drawn into the bizarre and deadly web that surrounds the dark secret of the school...
Horror Vault's take
Deep in the world of competitive acting, an ambitious but struggling drama student wins a coveted place at a prestigious school named after a legendary — and infamous — teacher whose revolutionary method left a trail of death before being buried by history. Strange rituals and disturbing events begin to surface around her, hinting that the school's dark past is very much alive in its present. Masks is a moody, Euro-horror love letter to the Italian giallo tradition, drenched in paranoia and sinister atmosphere. The further Stella digs, the more she risks becoming part of the secret she's uncovering.
