A mesmerising fable of long-repressed secrets and awakening memories from the mysterious world of Lucile Hadzihalilovic (Innocence, Enter the Void) and long time writing partner of Gaspar Noe, making her English language debut.
Somewhere in Europe, mid-20th century. Albert is employed to look after Mia, a girl with teeth of ice. Mia never leaves their apartment, where the shutters are always closed. The telephone rings regularly and the Master enquires after Mia's wellbeing. Until the day her reluctant carer Albert is instructed that he must prepare the child to leave, beginning a mysterious journey in Hadžihalilović's hallucinatory, haunting, and beautiful film.
