A Tale of Two Sisters

DramaHorrorMysteryThriller115 min

After a stay in a mental institution, sisters Su-mi and Su-yeon return home to their father and stepmother, where family tension quickly gives way to eerie disturbances. Lim Soo-jung and Yum Jung-ah anchor the household conflict as old wounds and dark secrets begin to surface. What starts as a strained reunion turns increasingly unstable, with the sisters confronting hostility at home and visions that blur memory, trauma, and the supernatural. The film keeps its focus tightly on this fractured family, letting dread build inside the house as reality and nightmare become harder to separate.
