Seven ordinary people. One sin: murder.

The film's subject is murder; its heroes are seven ordinary men and women who committed such an act. In his own way, each one of the characters - six prison inmates, their guard and one former prisoner- encircle the irrevocable act, which embodies the absurd and crushes their existence. The House of Cain is a journey in human decline and the guilt that each person experiences in the way and to the degree that he can. It is an exploration of man's limits but also of the boundaries of the documentary genre using the acrobatics of the characters and the acrobatics of style.
