CrimeDramaThriller

A retired police sergeant has an unnatural stranglehold over his wife and daughter. His claustrophobically enclosed world is threatened when his daughter Mila finds herself pregnant and was forced to marry Noel. He attempts to extend his influence over his son-in-law, who resists; there is a confrontation.

VIBE

A suffocating, true-crime-inspired descent into a family's dark secrets. The film feels like a slow, inevitable collapse under the weight of oppressive control, building to a shattering, inevitable confrontation.
