International star Asia Argento portrays Anna Manni, a beautiful police detective in pursuit of a savage serial killer-rapist that has been terrorizing central Italy. When his trail leads Anna to Florence's famed Uffizi Museum, the investigation takes a violently psychotic turn. Anna is struck by the bizarre phenomenon known as The Stendhal Syndrome, a psychological reaction to artwork that makes the viewer fall unconscious; and in Anna's case, vulnerable to the terror she is tracking. For her, the artwork begins to come to life. It terrorizes and brutalizes her as she tries to hunt down the depraved slasher.

As she gets closer to the vicious killer, her strange affliction transports her into nightmares of carnage. Her prey has now become predator. Anna must destroy the killer before she is destroyed by The Stendhal Syndrome.

The Stendhal Syndrome stars Asia Argento (XXX), Thomas Kretschmann (The Pianist) and Marco Leonardi (Once Upon A Time in Mexico), and features a haunting score by the incomparible Ennio Morricone (The Good the Bad and the Ugly, The Untouchables) and beautiful cinematography by Giuseppe Rotunno (Rocco and His Brothers, Fellini Satyricon) presented in the original 1.66:1 aspect ratio.
