The Ballerina
A ballerina is haunted by her reflection.
2021·8m·★ 5.7
A solitary dancer’s intense rehearsal turns into a waking nightmare when her mirror image gains a mind of its own. As her reflection begins to warp, shatter, and contort itself into gruesome, unnatural shapes, she horror-struck to find that her own body is forced to mimic every agonizing fracture. A chilling, wordless masterclass in psychological body-horror about the literal agony of chasing perfection.
