Mistress (2017) unfolds within a crumbling estate that feels alive with whispers of its past. The rigid matriarch is a formidable presence, her demands creating an oppressive atmosphere. It explores the clash between family duty and personal desire, with the daughter-in-law caught in that tension. The performances are quite layered, adding depth to what could easily have been a straightforward family drama. The pacing has a deliberate rhythm—sometimes slow, but it builds a thick tension that keeps you engaged throughout. Practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the film's somber tone. Overall, it’s distinct in how it navigates these heavy themes while maintaining a sense of mystery.
