About the film:

There are moments in this film that are genuinely terrifying — the story oscillating between quiet drama and horror movie.” – Autostraddle

In this chilling ghost story, a recently deceased woman haunts her estranged son Jack (Dacre Montgomery of Stranger Things) and her grieving widow Jill (Vicky Krieps of Phantom Thread and Corsage). When the woman’s spirit inhabits the survivors, the living must grapple with the destruction she left behind while fighting for their own survival. A Toronto International Film Festival premiere.
