Partner
The troubled Jacob, with long hair and a messy beard, enters a house and kills a boy playing the piano. That same Jacob, or possibly another with the same name who wears bourgeois clothes and short hair, teaches at a drama school and is unrequitedly in love with a girl. The two Jacobs meet and decide to live together. However, in reality, they are already united, living one inside the other. They are each the partner of the other.
