Synopsis

A fantastic account of a man and woman who live with a secret in the next room.

Thirteen years ago the husband killed a man in a crime of passion and put him in the bedroom.

The dead man has been growing ever since.

Now the crisis is here.

The man's beard is all over the floor, his arms are poking through windows, and his feet are coming through the door.

Obviously the time has come to move him.

There is one period in the operation during which the stage is all legs from left to right; truly a fantastic affair.
