Mixing popular superstitions from Southeast Asia with raw realism, feng shui with voodoo rituals, the Vietnamese director tells the story of Tam, a middle-aged woman who, after discovering her husband’s extramarital affair on live TV, decides to win him back through a dark magical ritual. However, the powerful spell does not have the desired effect, awakening the dark presences lurking in the house.
