Reference prompt

Create a 30-second cinematic psychological mystery short film, 16:9, 2.39:1, photorealistic live-action, grounded contemporary realism, natural human performances, realistic skin and fabric, subtle 35mm film texture, controlled handheld camera, practical lighting, muted neutral color palette, shallow depth of field, no fantasy visual effects, no subtitles, no explanatory narration. A young architect is alone in an old apartment during renovation. 0–4s: She measures a wall with a laser level. The apartment is empty and quiet. She marks a measurement in pencil. 4–7s: Her laser line crosses a section of wall that appears slightly deeper than it should be. She knocks. One section sounds hollow. 7–11s: She removes a small piece of plaster. Behind it is a tiny wooden door, impossibly small, built directly into the wall. 11–14s: She stares at it. She checks the architectural plans on her tablet. The wall does not exist on the plans. 14–18s: She opens the tiny door. Behind it is darkness. She shines her phone flashlight inside. 18–21s: The light reveals a tiny room. Inside that room is a miniature version of the exact apartment she is standing in. 21–24s: She slowly moves her phone closer. In the miniature apartment is a miniature version of herself. 25–27s: The miniature woman suddenly looks upward. Directly toward her. 27–30s: The real woman instinctively steps backward. From somewhere inside the wall behind her comes a soft knock. Then another. Cut to black. Sound: distant construction noise, ventilation, footsteps, plaster cracking, breathing. No music until the miniature figure looks up. Then one low sustained note and a barely audible pulse. Keep the supernatural element extremely subtle and physically believable. No jump scare. The horror comes entirely from recognition.
