criticism
“The camera work, which operates with earthy-monochrome images and suggestive journeys, and the claustrophobic setting fill the topos of the" Haunted House "with life in an atmospheric and suggestive way. Despite the complex construction of the plot, a psychological horror film succeeds with rapid tension dramaturgy. "
