FOREST
A father, a mother and a daughter find themselves refugees in an isolated house in the middle of the forest, for reasons that aren't clear at first. The family receives two unexpected visitors, but they don't know how to deal with this strange presence. As relationships are established, tension rises and the reckoning proves to be more complex than it seemed. While they are forced to review their own convictions, the world outside seems to collapse.
