The current master of the house, elderly baron Magnus, has been living for a long time in an unregistered relationship with his housekeeper Lisette, with whom he also has a son, Sebastian. After the baron falls gravely ill Lisette starts getting worried about losing everything, so with Sebastian on her side she demands the baron to write a letter to the pastor and ask him to come over to perform a wedding ceremony. Right after Sebastian has left to fetch the pastor, a threesome seeking shelter from the storm comes to the manor and wreaks havoc on the marriage plans.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a claustrophobic dread, relying on the decaying grandeur of the manor as a reflection of its inhabitants' moral collapse. It explores themes of legacy, sin, and inevitable doom through a slow-burn gothic lens.
What lingers after the final frame is a chilling sense of predestination, where every character is trapped by their own desires and the storm both outside and within. The horror here is quiet, psychological, and deeply unsettling. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Karl Fager
Best Watched
Watch alone on a stormy night, with minimal lighting, to be enveloped by its oppressive gothic mood.
