Anna and her daughter Iris live in a high-rise building on the edge of a forest where, under normal circumstances, they should feel at home in the close-knit community. But the disappearance of the caretaker’s dog triggers a devastating chain reaction, shattering the fragile domestic idyll and transforming it into a creeping nightmare. This sharp social satire leaves audiences with one lingering thought: to never end up in a place like this.
