Synopsis

Thomas and Anje have been struggling to conceive, but neither knows how to talk about what they’re going through. Anje pours herself into her family and caring for her demanding mother, while Thomas retreats into work and the purchase of their dream home. To Thomas, the house represents a chance for them to build a life away from Anje’s overbearing family, particularly her brother Hemming, a man seemingly incapable of tact, grace or decorum. But just as they are preparing to complete on the house, Thomas unexpectedly loses his job. With only fourteen days to find new employment before the bank withdraws their mortgage, he keeps the news from Anje, convinced he can solve the problem himself. When Hemming discovers Thomas’s secret, he immediately takes it upon himself to help. His increasingly bizarre solutions draw in dubious acquaintances, eccentric family members and, eventually, the attention of the law. What begins as a quiet domestic crisis gradually descends into farce, as Thomas’s determination to solve everything alone threatens to sabotage the family and future he has been trying so desperately to protect.

Synopsis

Lily and her husband Charlie, a couple in their early thirties, quietly fall apart inside a rural farmhouse inherited from Charlie’s father. Lily, an agoraphobic artist haunted by a childhood coma that left her temporarily paralysed, secretly performs ritualised asphyxiation to feel control over her body. Charlie, unable to face his hidden sexuality, seeks anonymous encounters with strangers. Their private compulsions hold their marriage together in a fragile, unspoken equilibrium. This balance fractures when Sam and Hannah arrive next door. Sam, a severe, cult-like presence, and Hannah, his unsettlingly youthful companion, first appear as eccentric but intriguing neighbours. Yet their charm soon curdles. They slip into Lily and Charlie’s routines, testing boundaries, dissolving privacy, and infiltrating their emotional space. A psychological game of mimicry deepens into ritualistic horror as Lily and Charlie’s identities begin to erode. Sam and Hannah exploit the psychological fault lines of their victims, using hidden fears and repressed desires as points of entry. As the distinctions between self and other blur, Lily must confront her deepest fear: losing control of her own body. Sam and Hannah are not simply neighbours - they are fallen angels on the run from the wrath of God.
