In a remote mountain village, two sisters grow up at the mercy of their abusive mother. A terrible accident happens when the eldest, Šarlota, escapes into the woods, followed by her sister Tamara. Otyla, a Roma woman living on the outskirts of town, is blamed for the girls’ disappearance and accused of witchcraft. Twenty years later, Šarlota unexpectedly shows up in the village. As she digs into her past, the locals grow suspicious. Only a young and eccentric herbalist, Mira, is willing to befriend her. When the animals in the village start to fall ill, the locals accuse Šarlota of conjuring Otyla's spirit.

"An engrossing psychological folk horror about witchcraft. The key art is very good but I ended up skipping the slipcover as I didn't quite connect with the custom art. Barebones release but still glad to have grabbed this as part of the last sale."
"Great performances in this one. Slipcover is pretty nice as well."
"This was a blind buy during the last sale and did enjoy it. I can see myself watching it again in the future, so not a waste of money on my part. Give it a look if you get the chance."
"If you like modern folk horror, check this one out."
"Deep drama with great ideas"
"Thematically pretty rich with a lot of atmosphere. Worth grabbing if you’re into slow burn folk horror."
"Beautiful movie with a tone that sticks with you for a while."
"Intriguing themes and atmosphere to spare makes this film an entertaining exploration into horror."
"Folkhorror where a woman is an outcast with feminist messages Mixed with. . . . . A young woman returns to the town she grew up but soon becomes haunted by her past. They just took the most played out and generic plots and spliced them together"
"Nice mystery about witchcraft has no extras but a great slip cover"
