A dark, paranoia-soaked horror film that blurs the boundary between nightmare and reality, anchored by a daughter's desperate search for answers about a family curse.

Mona’s days are filled with concern for her mother, a woman broken by her belief that her nightmares are real. In search of answers, Mona arrives in a village where she encounters an old family curse in a strange hotel.
