Overcome by misery and desperation, she makes an unholy pact to have her husband returned to her. When her loved one returns however, she finds there are consequences when meddling with death.We are a group of passionate students who feel the need to bring this film to life. Our crew is experienced in film production and is devoted to creating a visually stunning and emotionally moving story, inspired by German Expressionism.
