An ancient apartment block in Engelstadt is the setting for a Christmas mystery, with a mysterious disappearance of one of its tenants leading to a cast of characters being assembled. The Professor, a mysterious figure, is believed to solve the enigma on Christmas Eve. The film is an Expressionist graphic vision of our archetypal, metamorphic Shadows, and is one of the strangest Christmas stories you will ever read.

Engelstadt, a dream city, is home to an ancient apartment block that holds a mysterious labyrinth of corridors and secrets. As Christmas approaches, a tenant mysteriously disappears, leading to a cast of characters being assembled before us. Among them are an elderly aristocratic widow who plays the piano, a young mother who disciplines her hallucinating son, and a photographer who pursues creative experiments under the magnetic spell of the moon. Meanwhile, a dark cloud threatens to envelop the city, and caped crusaders wander its park.
The film screening is a key part of the story, as the eccentric Professor will surely solve the enigma on Christmas Eve. Edifice is a pan-European Pandoras Box of narrative Russian dolls and Chinese boxes, building into an Expressionist graphic vision of our archetypal, metamorphic Shadows. Whether or not it is an allegory of some sort, Andrzej Klimowski's masterpiece of symbolic form is certainly one of the strangest Christmas stories you will ever read. If you look carefully, you will see it.
