Los Angeles, CA | Is it possible to hide away a secret lover in an attic…for nearly a decade?? What starts as a daytime affair in the midwest between Dolly Oesterreich and Otto San Huber quickly escalates into Otto living in the attic of Dolly’s home. This arrangement lasts for years, even surviving a move to Los Angeles where Otto continues to live hidden in the attic of Dolly’s Silver Lake home. But when Dolly’s husband dies under highly suspicious circumstances, the LAPD investigates only to hit a dead end - until a series of really sloppy mistakes and years of elapsed time reveals what they could have never guessed.
