The Twin
Gustav is a hard working architect and a passionate free-diver. He practices holding his breath in his car, at work and even while sleeping, which results in a hissing noise that keeps his girlfriend awake. He goes to see a doctor, who discovers something strange in Gustav’s throat. The outcome is both unpleasant and comical.
