Dacre Montgomery (Stranger Things) and Vicky Krieps (Phantom Thread) star in this Australasian ghost story from the director of Sequin in a Blue Room.
After being abandoned as a child, Jack (Montgomery) ventures to remote New Zealand to attend the funeral of his estranged mother and there meets her grieving widow, Jill (Krieps). His search for answers becomes dangerous when his mother’s ghost returns to inhabit both Jack and Jill, using each of their bodies to speak to the other, and instigating a life-threatening nocturnal dance between the three of them.
