The classic horror story starring Nicole Kidman returns to theaters for its 25th anniversary release in a new director-approved 4K reconstruction.

The year 1945, the island of Jersey, just after the war. Grace (Nicole Kidman) waits for her husband, who hasn't returned from the front, and alone raises two children with a rare condition: Sunlight can kill them. In a large, fog-shrouded house, its rules apply. The curtains are always drawn, and no door must be opened before the previous one has closed. When three new servants stand on the doorstep, and her daughter begins to talk about people no one sees except her, the world Grace has built begins to crack.

Amenábar himself wrote the script, directed the film and composed music for it. He drew on the tradition of In the Ticks of Fear by Henry James and Jack Clayton's Innocents to show that the most effective horror is the one that doesn't raise its voice. The horror here comes from the silence, the flame of the candle and what is hidden behind the next door, and the darkness in the photographs of Javier Aguirresarobe is a full-fledged heroine. The film became a worldwide hit, won eight Goya Awards, including Best Film and Director, and is still considered one of the most important horror films of the 21st century.
