A slow-burn supernatural horror about a family's dawning realization that their adopted daughter may be demonic, built on paranoia and the corruption of domestic intimacy.

An English family of six takes in a pregnant woman who disappears shortly after giving birth. They raise the baby girl as their own, but over the years the strange deaths of their children make them consider whether the little girl is more than she appears.
