2021104 minHorror, Thriller, Drama 6.7

Eva, an ex-dancer, is now living in a wheelchair, unable to walk. When her friend Sophie gives her an old wooden antique advent calendar before Christmas, she realizes each window contains a surprise that triggers repercussions in real life: some of them good, but most of them bad... Now Eva will have to choose between getting rid of the calendar or walking again… even if it causes death around her.

Editor's Verdict

🤔KINDA

"The movie utilizes the advent calendar, a quintessential Christmas tradition, as the central, high-stakes plot device. While the genres are Horror/Thriller, the entire narrative hinges on this Christmas item, driving significant plot points and character decisions, even if the tone is antithetical to typical holiday cheer. The setting is explicitly Christmas-related due to the device's nature."
