Victor Fries is a brilliant but reclusive cryogenic engineer at GothCorp, whose only connection to humanity is his vibrant wife, Nora. When Nora is diagnosed with a rare and incurable neurodegenerative disease, Victor convinces his boss, the ambitious Ferris Boyle, to let him use experimental equipment to put her into stasis (cryogenic freezing) until a cure is found. The film focuses on Victor's mental deterioration as he spends days and nights talking to Nora's glass tube, while GothCorp decides to cut funding. The climax is not a fight against Batman, but the brutal moment when Boyle attempts to pull the plug on Nora, resulting in the accident that alters Victor's DNA. The third act is a "silent massacre" where a transformed Victor, unable to feel heat, seeks revenge and the resources to save his wife, crossing paths with a shadow watching over Gotham.
