The truth is known to all but one.

A melancholic coming-of-age horror film that uses supernatural transformation as a metaphor for adolescent isolation and the fear of being fundamentally different.

Teenage Marie lives on a small island with her father and catatonic mother. Virtually friendless and sullen, Marie begins to experience frightening changes in her body that mark her as a dangerous threat.
