Paul Otto, a successful lawyer, and his wife Jenny, an artist, live in a quiet suburban home with their young son, Gene. Concerned about their elderly housekeeper Agatha’s declining mental state, they decide to dismiss her. Before leaving, Agatha gives Gene a vintage doll named Robert as a parting gift.

Jenny starts to believe her son’s claims, especially after discovering the word “die” scrawled on a mirror and witnessing the destruction of one of her paintings.
