About This Movie

The atmosphere is thick and eerie, with unsettling sounds and visuals that manifest the protagonist’s descent into madness. The pacing is deliberate, almost methodical, which builds tension as the artist grapples with his own insecurities and the haunting history of the homestead. Practical effects are used sparingly yet effectively, enhancing the sense of dread without overshadowing the narrative. The performances, although understated, capture a raw intensity that feels authentic to its setting. It's a film that lingers, making you think about the darker aspects of creativity and the ghosts that artists often carry.
