A claustrophobic psychological horror about a marriage fractured by a husband's escalating nocturnal transformation, blending medical mystery with supernatural dread.

A pregnant wife who becomes worried about her husband’s sleeping habits. What starts out as some light sleep-talking soon escalates to unexpectedly grotesque behaviour. They consult a sleep clinic without success and as his nightmarish behaviour escalates, they desperately seek help from a shaman.
