For Better and for Worse

A struggling artist, desperate for inspiration and money, accepts a lucrative but morally questionable commission. He must paint a portrait of a mysterious recluse living in an isolated mansion. As he delves deeper into his subject's unsettling world, the artist finds his own reality blurring with the dark themes he is forced to depict, leading to a terrifying confrontation with the true nature of his patron and his art.
