The premise
Tomaz, an ex-soldier now homeless in London, is offered a place to stay at a decaying house, inhabited by a young woman and her dying mother. As he starts to fall for Magda, Tomaz cannot ignore his suspicion that something insidious might also be living alongside them.
Horror Vault's take
A homeless ex-soldier accepts the charity of a mysterious young woman caring for her bedridden mother in a crumbling London house — but the building's rot runs deeper than its walls. Director Romola Garai's debut weaves a slow-burning psychological dread with something far more visceral lurking beneath the surface. Haunted by his past, Tomaz finds that the shelter offered to him may come at an unknowable cost. What begins as a portrait of guilt and compassion curdles steadily into something deeply disturbing.
