A darkly absurdist horror-comedy that traps a student in an underground bunker with a dysfunctional, psychologically fractured family, blending surreal humor with genuine dread and discomfort.

A student moves in with a family that lives in an underground house in the middle of the forest, far from civilization. His hopes of peace and quiet are soon shattered, when it becomes apparent that both the parents and their son have a screw loose.
