The film revolves around Mona and Ploy, two women connected by tragic losses—mothers who seemingly combusted into flames without explanation. It's not just about the deaths; it's the eerie atmosphere that grips you. The pacing has its moments, oscillating between suspenseful revelations and quieter, reflective scenes. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, serve the story well, lending a gritty authenticity. The performances are solid, especially in how the leads convey their emotional turmoil. It’s a unique exploration of grief and the unknown, making for a thoughtful watch, albeit not your classic thriller.
