Canon LTM what went wrong here

Canon M39 M39 screw mount bodies/lenses
I'm not a Canon connoisseur, but it looks to me like the effect of wrinkled shutter curtains... Although, on second thought, if the curtains move vertically and the problem here looks like only half of the frame was exposed... there must be a problem with something else. Let's see what others have to say.

And yes, the camera will have to go to the shop, sorry. Was it recently purchased?
 
Do you know if this was the last of the 12 rolls or somewhere in the middle of the batch? It does look like a capping shutter, but also check that there is no chips of film in the curtain track. Occasionally you have these small pieces stuck and they can slow down the curtain. If it was stuck on theleading edge of the 2nd curtain it could explain the "brake" effect.
