CRIMSON DESPAIR is the story about a former theater actor, who's now been accused of the murder of an up-and-coming actor; without any apparent reason. The motives and reasons unfold as the accused converses with the interrogating officer.
The accused Amitava, unable to suffer from his guilt and fear of retribution, had previously surrendered himself to the police. But then pleaded not guilty before the court. Quite suddenly, however, Amitava proposes the deal that he'll confess to the crime if the officer agrees to be an audience to the last act he wishes to present before him. Not an ordinary act in any way, through monologues he wishes to narrate his motives and desires which led him to commit the dreadful crime.
After seeing his way of profiting in the situation, the officer agrees, albeit with some skepticism. What the officer does not know is the secret ploy in store by the theater actor convicted for murder.
