Synopsis

Susy, a recently blinded housewife, unwittingly possesses a doll filled with illicit drugs. Roat, a brutal and sophisticated criminal, coerces two small-time thugs into helping him con Susy into giving up the doll. A battle of wits ensues as Susy and the young girl upstairs launch a counterplot against the thieves. The drama plays on the themes of darkness and light as Susy navigates through her sightless world, and the crooks signal each other with light through the Venetian blinds.(synopsis by stageagents.com)
