Plot

Santi, a young high-school student with a serious physical reaction to sunlight, is forced by his health to move with his single mother to a shadowy, isolated village in the mountains of Spain where the inhabitants begin to reveal themselves as strangely xenophobic.

Sinekatalog’s take

A teenager allergic to sunlight moves with his mother to a gloomy mountain village whose residents are hostile to outsiders. The horror builds slowly with moody visuals and a strong sense of unease. A decent chiller for fans of Spanish gothic atmosphere.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
