SYNOPSIS

A magazine photographer, housebound on account of a broken leg, becomes voyeur to the apartment building facing his rear window for lack of anything to do. Soon, he draws his visiting girlfriend in on the thrill and eventually they witness a murder in progress that gets them into hot water.

With its charming performances and ability to build suspense despite one-room setting, this is widely appealing for fans of classic nail-biting romantic drama.
