Unwell Woman
Dark academia just got darker...
2024·14m·★ 10.0
A night at the library turns into a nightmare when a student discovers a haunted painting, unleashing the dark secrets of her long-dead mother... Blending live action with stop-motion shadow puppetry, this short gothic horror resurrects the monstrous legacy of hysteria, and the medical myths that have made monsters of unmaternal mothers.
