DramaThrillerMystery
Set during a retreat of Christian Democrat politicians who practice spiritual exercises together, it is an allegory of corrupted power. Disturbing, claustrophobic settings are the background to a series of mysterious crimes.
VIBE
A suffocating, sun-drenched retreat devolves into psychological torment. This film feels like a fever dream, where repressed desires and religious dogma collide in a chilling, allegorical descent into madness and corruption.
