Synopsis
Spoiler shield

Police chief Romeo becomes convinced that affluent professional Velasco is a serial killer known for mauling his victims with his teeth, but nobody believes him. The investigation slowly turns into a personal challenge between obsessive Romeo and stone-faced Velasco, an individual above suspicion β€” he murders people not because he has to, but simply because he can.
