SINOPSYS
The 30-year-old Silvia Hachermann, director of a chemical laboratory, as a child voluntarily killed her mother, whom she had surprised with her lover. The fact, buried until then in her subconscious, is discovered by a sect – gathered around a Senegalese scholar and of which Silvia’s fiancé himself is part – who practices black magic and wants to graft certain rites to Rome, such as cannibalism, in force in African tribes. Slowly the cult’s followers succeed, by relying on Silvia’s psychic fragility, to lead her to total madness. One night, the woman kills herself by jumping from the balcony of her house. Her persecutors collect her body and wolf it.
