When stranger knocks...

DramaThriller

Sasha, a young British woman, is living with her baby daughter at Ile d'Yeu, a peaceful beach community. A stranger appears. Her name is Tatiana, she's passing through, and pitches her tent in Sasha's yard. The two women build an odd rapport, and tension builds as events unfold.

VIBE

A quiet, sun-drenched facade slowly cracks to reveal simmering dread. It feels like a slow, creeping unease, a psychological pressure cooker where unspoken tensions build between two women under a vast, indifferent sky.
