Picture taker Adam Stanheight and oncologist Lawrence Gordon recapture awareness while anchored to pipes at one or the flip side of a grimy restroom. As the two men acknowledge they’ve been caught by a savage chronic executioner nicknamed “Jigsaw” and should finish his unreasonable riddle to live, flashbacks relate the destinies of his past casualties. In the interim, Dr. Gordon’s significant other and youthful girl are compelled to watch his torment through shut circuit video.
