Jackson, an ambitious photographer desperate to make his first showcase unforgettable, recreates the haunting works of a famous Canadian painter rumoured to have possessed her paintings after her death. Legend claims that anyone who comes into contact with the artwork becomes claimed by it — body and soul. Skeptical but hungry for recognition, Jackson dismisses the warnings and immerses himself in the recreations. But as his work intensifies, so do the disturbances around him. What begins as artistic ambition spirals into psychological unravelling, as Jackson realizes the paintings may not simply be inspired by death — they may be inhabited by it. Framed is a dark supernatural thriller exploring obsession, artistic sacrifice, and the terrifying cost of being seen.
