The teaser begins with an interrogation scene, where Tovino’s character asks Trisha’s character whether she can identify the culprit.
Introducing the character of the 96 actress as the one with photographic memory, the words of the character echo throughout the teaser: “Pentagonal shape. On a square-shaped face, he had a chin that extended down like a fifth corner.” The frequently played description about the culprit hints at its relevance and takes the viewer to geometrically measure the faces of each character.
