Shooting your first film can be murder...Hannie Reynard has landed every aspiring filmmaker's dream: a hefty grant to make her documentary, Freaks or Frauds.

Blowing the grant money on a lost weekend in Paris was bad enough, but now the 'stars' of her film - women who share a unique genetic trait - have stopped talking...and started disappearing. Blackmailed into accepting a burned out colleague as her cameraman, Hannie follows a perilous trail that leads her and her crew toward a powerful puppet master with a deadly obsession.
