Richard Karpala, Gabriel Bienczycki

Sans titre-1

Witches attack unfortunate people who venture outside at night and make them disappear. Despite the danger, three brothers decide to go to a desert site to see the corpse of one of these creatures, a decision that will seal both their fate and that of their loved ones. From a highly surreal premise, Gabriel Bienczycki and Richard Karpala create a minimalist narrative about a terrifying intangible threat. Its streamlined style clearly works in its favour, proving once again that great cinema functions perfectly well with off-screen effects, mystery and suggestion. The result is a particularly daring first film
