Them

Clémentine and Lucas, a French couple working in Romania, awake in the middle of the night and quickly discover they are trapped inside by unknown assailants. This is the simple premise behind Moreau and Palud’s debut feature, a horror story made all the more terrifying by its stripped-down, bare-boned plot. Innovative camerawork invites us to share the couple’s terrifying nightmare, forced into tight corners, scrambling through the darkness and never sure of why they are under attack - until the film’s chilling climax.
