A Frame of Mind: Mircea is a troubled Romanian writer struggling with a deadline to complete his novel. An obnoxious, loud, and possibly dangerous man, Boris, moves into the apartment across the hall with his own deadline of excess and self-destruction. Unable to work, Mircea storms across the hall to confront Boris. In confronting this madman, he may very well be confronting his own sanity all under the watchful eye of Death Herself.
