People are both the devil and god—and are truly mysterious

In medieval, war-torn Japan, an impoverished widow and her daughter-in-law survive by killing samurai who stray into their swamp and selling their valuables. After learning of the death of their son/husband, the daughter in law begins an affair with a neighbour, threatening the fragile equilibrium of their lives… Dealing with themes of lust, envy, repressed sexuality, female power, grey morality and the fallout of war leading to societal breakdown, this atmospheric horror fairytale will haunt you long after the credits finish rolling.
