Plot

When a wealthy and predominant family inherits a beautiful historic home in a tiny Portuguese village, local superstition claims that they have also inherited a deadly curse in director Tiago Guedes' atmospheric frightener. Dr. Monteiro has always given his wife and children the very best that money can buy, but after inheriting a sprawling estate in the countryside he ignores their pleas to sell it for a profit and instead decides to move the family in. It doesn't take long for the family to realize that the superstitious locals view the house as cursed, and as a series of ominous events begin to unfold it becomes frighteningly apparent that there may be some element of truth to the dreadful rumors.
