The Wailing

Andrea, a university student in present-day Madrid, lives a seemingly normal life, until one day when her boyfriend is killed in a shocking act of violence. She soon begins to notice a mysterious entity that follows her no matter where she turns. Twenty years prior, Marie, a woman in Buenos Aires, suffered the same fate. Camila, a documentarian, learns of the threat these women faced, but no one will believe her. Across time and space, these three unconnected women are bound together by an inescapable terror. Director Pedro Martín-Calero's The Wailing is “an unsettling, cryptic and disturbing film… a powerful feature debut about violence against women, about all that feeds into it and causes it.” (Cineuropa).
