Janara
The mysterious disappearances of several children in San Lupo, in the province of Benevento, are throwing the population into chaos and terror. Some believe it could be a pedophile, while others believe it's a legendary witch, Janara, who was burned at the stake while pregnant centuries ago, thus casting a curse on the town and its inhabitants. It's against this backdrop that Alessandro and Marta, a young pregnant couple, arrive in town to deal with inheritance matters related to the death of Marta's grandfather. They will find themselves dealing with the disappearances much more intimately than they ever imagined.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a chilling atmosphere by relying on authentic local folklore and the unsettling contrast between modern skepticism and ancient terror. It explores the weight of a generational curse and the paralysis of collective fear, drawing the viewer deeper into its paranoid core.
What lingers after the credits is a profound unease, a sense that the true horror lies in the blurred line between myth and reality. A grim descent into the heart of Italian rural gothic. — MovieFinder Editorial
