Angelo

Melina is a talented but poor artist whose passion is the restoration of forgotten frescoes. She receives an anonymous offer: to restore the paintings in an ancient chapel within a secluded estate. The pay is unbelievable.
Angelo is a charismatic, influential man from the shadow world of art. He is not a gangster, but his power is absolute, and his methods are manipulation and control. He sees in Melina his ideal "muse."

Melina agrees, enchanted by the opportunity. With each passing day, it becomes more dangerous, as Melina feels someone's presence. Soon, Angelo appears, and he sees in her... his muse.
The fresco she is restoring becomes a symbol of their relationship: an ancient depiction of a sorrowful woman. Melina realizes that Angelo sees in her a reflection of this woman or his own ideal image. When the fresco is finished, he reveals the truth: he orchestrated their meeting so that she would become a part of his life, his "collection." He leads her to his secret gallery, where every piece of art reminds him of her. Melina realizes there is no way back; she is forever captive to his obsession.

—Did you think you were saving this fresco, Melina? You were simply bringing a part of my history back to life. Now your history belongs to me, and you will write it by my side. You are my masterpiece. My life. Mine forever.
