“The Soviet Union’s first horror film!”
DramaFantasyHorror
A seminary student on monastery holiday kills an old witch in a remote village. The hag then transforms into a beautiful young woman whose dying wish is for him to watch over her wake for three nights. With terrors occurring and his faith waning, he reads prayers on the overnight watch and tries to survive the supernatural encounters.
VIBE
A chilling descent into folk horror, this film wraps you in a suffocating, gothic atmosphere. It's a slow, dread-soaked journey where faith battles ancient evil in a remote, unsettling village. Pure, atmospheric dread.
