English title: Masks.
Synopsis: A writer approaches a TV host and proposes to write his biography; the TV host accepts and invites the writer over to his country estate. The TV host keeps his orphaned godchild there, and she and the writer make friends. The real agenda of the writer is gradually revealed, and some hidden facts about the TV host also come to fore.
Appraisal: This plot is rather devoid of surprises, with a taste of déjà vu. The mise-en-scène is rather conventional too. The dialogue is reasonably well written and the acting is excellent. Overall, a forgettable film, that has its highlight in the final TV speech delivered by the protagonist.
