In 1993, after a car crash leaves Ahmed amnesiac, he returns to his village, where nothing feels familiar—not his wife, not his children. In the present, an ageing Raqi battles Alzheimer’s, while his disciple grows worried. While strange visitors whisper litanies in an unknown tongue, Ahmed fears regaining memory—while the disciple fears his master’s decline may unleash an ancient evil. A grounded and haunting possession tale, where horror reveals national trauma and generational guilt, and whose haunting voices and supernatural visions linger long after the end...
