Synopsis/Details
Loosely based on The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Seek explores the idea of someone using a multiple-personality disorder to escape from a horrific situation.
A nurse is kidnapped by a sexual predator, locked up in a room and repeatedly raped. She needs to unleash a rather dark and dangerous personality which first emerged when she was a child playing Hide and Seek. However, she's spent years in therapy learning to control the 'Hide' personality and he's locked inside her mind. Seek shows the internal mental struggle of the trapped personality as it wakes up and attempts to break though.
Once it does, it's revenge time!
