Single mother Alina enrolls her shy, quiet son Serik in an elite military academy, using his father’s high military ranking to ensure his acceptance. But the boys are brutal, and the principal is worse, isolating and demeaning Serik. Meanwhile, a bigger threat looms, something dark and unseen that comes from the basement of the old Soviet building.
Kazakh director Adilkhan Yerzhanov’s first foray into horror is big on atmosphere, using the built-in creepiness of isolated, old structures to create some truly terrifying moments.
