A haunting, deliberately ambiguous fable about isolation, control, and the unknowable bond between a caretaker and an uncanny child, suffused with dread and melancholy.

Somewhere in Europe, mid-20th century. Albert is employed to look after Mia, a girl with teeth of ice. Mia never leaves their apartment, where the shutters are always closed. The telephone rings regularly and the Master enquires after Mia's wellbeing. Until the day Albert is instructed that he must prepare the child to leave.
