The premise
A university professor, who wants to slow down a little, moves with his wife and daughter, from the big city to a small town and starts a new job as a teacher in a girls' gymnasium. Something weird is happening with the class, they seem to hide a secret. As it turns out, these girls don't play with dolls...
Horror Vault's take
A weary university professor trades the chaos of city life for the quiet of a small Russian town, taking up a teaching post at a local girls' gymnasium. From the moment he steps into the classroom, something feels distinctly off about his students — a collective undercurrent of unspoken knowledge and strange behaviour that refuses to be explained away. What begins as mild unease steadily coils into something far darker, as the professor discovers the girls are bound by a secret far beyond ordinary adolescent mischief. This slow-burn Russian chiller leans into atmosphere and dread rather than spectacle.
