When a young
actress moves into a rented apartment, her landlord, a retiring loner
living upstairs, becomes obsessed by her.
Secretly he sets up a video surveillance system to monitor her every
action, becoming increasingly obsessed in subjecting the object of his
passion to the full power of his desire.
THE OWNER (EL PROPRIETARIO) is a graphic daring blend of horror,
eroticism and psychological thriller. A study of a compulsive
voyeuristic and obsessive nature compelled to its last consequences.

Reviews
“Argentina’s got a new genre enfant terrible in
the person of Javier Diment, co-writer and co-director”’…truly strong
stuff”

“Diment has turned heads with his gritty psychological horror pieces
for a little while now and is quickly establishing himself as one of
the bright lights of the current wave of Argentinian genre film
…while certainly not too shy to shock - is primarily a psychological
study of obsession and destruction”
