Spino, a pathologist at the Lisbon Morgue, is "deadly" attracted to the corpse of a young man who has been killed in a police shoot-out. He carries no identification. After the brutal shock of recognizing his face in the cadaver, Spino starts a breathless race to discover the identity of his "other self".
