See the films the platforms disagree about most →Valeria is excitedly preparing for the birth of her first child. However, her pregnancy becomes plagued by terrifying and increasingly intense visions of a sinister, bone-breaking entity. She begins to fear for her safety and that of her unborn baby, unsure if the apparitions are supernatural threats or manifestations of her own deep-seated anxieties about motherhood and the loss of her identity. The line between reality and nightmare blurs.
