Curse of the Weeping Woman: J-ok'el
Do you hear the whisper?
A dark supernatural thriller rooted in Mexican folklore, where a skeptical outsider confronts a vengeful spirit amid kidnappings and family estrangement in a remote village.
An unworldly and closed-minded American travels to a small village in exotic Chiapas, Mexico; at the behest of his estranged mother when his half-sister disappears during a local epidemic of kidnappings attributed to the legendary J-ok'el, the weeping woman, who drowned her own babies, centuries ago and whose spirit has returned to claim more children as her own.
