Shot in a gripping faux-documentary style, this unsettling horror film explores the dark consequences of intrusive storytelling, where every whispered confession and tearful breakdown hides a lurking menace. The students’ relentless pursuit of authenticity becomes a harrowing descent into madness, proving that some stories should never be told.
