The premise
After a couple finds a traumatized child of unknown origins, wife Paula must decipher the girl's strange behaviors to unlock her identity and dark past.
Horror Vault's take
When Paula and her partner discover a mute, frightened child alone on a dark roadside, they take her in — only to find that the girl's inexplicable rituals and rigid boundaries hint at something deeply sinister in her past. Paula becomes consumed by the need to understand what was done to this child and who is responsible, drawing herself ever closer to a truth that grows more disturbing with every clue. A slow-burn Spanish thriller that weaponizes silence and restraint to devastating effect, The Chalk Line is as much a psychological puzzle as it is a horror story.
