“Tackling themes of isolation, mental health during pregnancy and the expectations of motherhood, the film manages to teeter between delusion and reality...Middleton’s haunting film leaves a lot to the imagination and inspired great discussion after the credits.”

- Aoife O’Ceallachain, Film Ireland

“A very raw, organic and unsettling film that manages to plunge the audience deep within the mind of the main actress. Impressive art direction, sound design and cinematography resulting in a strong and original horror.”
