Synopsis
“In this graphic psychodrama, a grief-stricken man and woman – a searing
Willem Dafoe and Cannes best actress winner
Charlotte Gainsbourg – retreat to their cabin deep in the woods after the accidental death of their infant son, only to find terror and violence at the hands of nature and, ultimately, each other. But this most confrontational work yet from one of contemporary cinema’s most controversial artists is no mere provocation. It is a visually sublime, emotionally ravaging journey to the darkest corners of the possessed human mind; a disturbing battle of the sexes that pits rational psychology against age-old superstition; and a profoundly effective horror film.” – Janus Films
