About the film:

Premiered at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival. Evan is a young American fleeing to Europe to escape his past. While backpacking along the Italian coast, everything changes during a stop at an idyllic Italian village, where he meets and instantly connects with the enchanting and mysterious Louise. A flirtatious romance begins to bloom between the two. However, Evan soon realizes that Louise has been harboring a monstrous, primordial secret that puts both their relationship and their lives in jeopardy.

“Moving and beautiful, it’s a true original, with an appeal that extends way beyond the normal limits of the horror genre.”

—Anton Bitel for Sight & Sound
