“They can demolish a building, but never remove the past.”
Directed by Pål Øie

The premise
An old sanatorium is deteriorating in an isolated forest in the mountains. Five contract workers have taken on the task of tracking the huge building for hazardous waste before it's demolished. They realize that the job is more than a search for asbestos and mercury when they encounter the building's frightening past. You can demolish a building, but never remove the past.
Horror Vault's take
Deep in a remote mountain forest, a crumbling sanatorium awaits demolition — but first, a small crew of contractors must survey it for hazardous materials. What begins as a routine inspection quickly unravels as the building's dark history makes itself impossible to ignore. The decaying structure seems to hold onto its secrets with a will of its own, and the further the workers dig, the more the line between job site and nightmare blurs. This Norwegian sequel delivers slow-burn dread rooted in place and the weight of forgotten suffering.
