A gothic, psychologically intense portrait of two sisters whose symbiotic bond curdles into control and resistance in an isolated coastal setting.

Sisters September and July share an intense bond, speaking in a secret language and keeping the outside world at a distance. After September is suspended from school, their mother brings them to a remote house on the Irish coast—where July begins to resist her sister’s increasingly sadistic control.
