About this show
Three estranged siblings reunite at a rural retreat in Italy after the middle sister has been released from psychiatric treatment following a breakdown, one she experienced as a deep spiritual awakening. As this troubled young woman behaves more erratically and relationships fracture, the local community takes on an unexpected significance as power dynamics shift and change. Frieda Luk’s artfully composed and highly compelling debut feature is a deftly woven, unpredictable and black-humoured thriller of superstition, idolatry and communal faith with a distinctive magical realist edge.
