Treatment

Claudia Gyring is a teacher whose job is wholly unfulfulling. From waking up in the morning to going to sleep at night, her life had not changed for more than twenty years.

Like the flick of a switch, she transforms one night, yet the majority of the time, she stays lucid and in control, only occassionally turning into someone unrecognisable - a woman of undeniable strength and anger. Sensing that everything has changed, she becomes an introverted individual, attempting to ignore her now frequent dreams of the Devil telling her to 'kill all who don't believe.' However, as she descends more completely into madness, Ellie Smith, an eleven year old girl in one of her classes, just so happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time: kidnapped, attacked and then stowed away in Claudia's office cupboard, she is almost scared to death.As newsreaders tell the public of her disappearance, Ellie must wait for help - that is, if the police get there in time...
