🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a bleak, gothic-tinged fairy tale, relying on a palpable sense of dread to explore the deep scars of familial trauma and separation. It builds its horror not just on supernatural hints, but on the very real cruelty of Jack's upbringing.

What lingers after the credits is a chilling atmosphere of longing and inevitable doom, where the quest for connection becomes a desperate race against a darkening fate. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Garth Maxwell

Watch alone, late at night, with the lights off. A mood piece for fans of atmospheric dread.
