UK PREMIERE - A supernatural thriller directed by genre visionary and FrightFest favourite Adrián García Bogliano, starring acclaimed filmmaker Gigi Saul Guerrero in her first leading role as Patricia, who is tortured by grief and guilt after witnessing her young son burn to death in front of her. Her family try but fail to provide solace, and her depression deepens as she turns to heavy medication. The pills keep her in a constant numb state, and in this cloudy twilight she is confronted by an uncanny presence wearing the face of her lost child. Should we look towards darkness rather than away from it for consolation?
