FilmHaunted by a personal tragedy, home care worker Shoo (Clare Monnelly) leaves her pregnant girlfriend to care for Peig (Bríd Ní Neachtain), a cantankerous old woman who has incarcerated herself in a big house on the edge of a remote village.
Peig fears the neighbours as much as she fears na sídhe, sinister entities who she believes abducted her on her wedding night decades before. As the two develop a deep connection, Shoo is infected by the old woman’s paranoia, rituals, and superstitions, eventually confronting the horrors of her own past.
