She may not speak, but she sees and hears everything.

A mute, young wanderer, Anna, lands a job as a housekeeper for a cosmopolitan married couple. The position seems simple at first, but as time passes and tensions crack her bosses? placid surfaces, she comes to realize that her new household is anything but a peaceful one. Anna?s presence affects the family in profound ways, prompting them to face buried secrets while offering a chance for redemption. But will her ethics be challenged when she becomes involved with a smitten young suitor? Following in the footsteps of the acclaimed Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr, Jozsef Pacskovszky delivers a provocative and highly emotional tale of human desire, salvation and the burden of playing silent witness to the affairs all around us.
