It is mid-1980s. Bill Hagmaier, young, emphathetic, freshly appointed FBI profiler, begins an assignment that will radically change everything he was, is and will ever be. Trying to comprehend the driving force behind the killing spree of Ted Bundy, one of the most notorious serial killers of the 20th century who is currently awaiting the death penalty, Hagmaier starts talking to the man. One thing that makes him different from other more experienced agents who have tried to interrogate Bundy is that Bill does not try to control, dominate or intimidate the criminal. He wishes to understand him and treat the serial killer as an equal and in this way prepare himself for chasing others of his kind. What is more, he somehow connects to the man, and were it not for the reason of their meetings, their relationship could be even called friendly. The conversations between the good agent and the evil murderer do bring some answers, but at the same time leave several disturbing questions. Like, could Bundy have been a great profiler given different circumstances and Hagmaier a brutal serial killer himself?
