[SLO]

V filmu spremljamo zgodbo jezne in težavne najstnice Leah, katere odraščanje je vse prej kot enostavno; po smrti očeta se je njena mama spremenila v pretirano zaščitniško in živčno razvalino, na šoli se druži z “luzerji”, njen edini pobeg pa predstavlja poslušanje metal glasbe in branje knjig na temo okultnega. Leah se nekega dne močno spre s svojo mamo in v jezi jo želi ubiti s pomočjo nenavadnega rituala, s katerim obudi duh zlobne gozdne čarovnice, ki pa ima bistveno večjo moč, kot se zdi na prvi pogled. Od tod naprej Pyewacket postane čisti psihološki “mindfuck”, saj ni nikoli povsem jasno, če Leah resnično ogroža nadnaravna sila ali pa je zgolj podlegla pretiranemu verovanju v okultno. -Deseta umetnost

[ENG]

When you're dealing with demons, be careful what you wish for... In this ultra-unsettling occult nightmare, teenage Leah (Nicole Muñoz) finds solace from the recent death of her father-and from her strained relationship with her mother (Laurie Holden)--by dabbling in the dark arts. It all seems like harmless fun at first, until a blow out argument leads Leah to do the unthinkable: put a death curse on her mother. No sooner has the girl performed the ritual than she regrets it. But it may be too late, as an evil presence known as Pyewacket begins to make itself known--and threatens to destroy both mother and daughter. Backcountry director Adam MacDonald builds hair-raising tension around what's both a complex mother-daughter tale and a frightening fable about our darkest desires.
