7 Women and a Murder

In the wintry hush of a sprawling family estate, a sudden tragedy shatters the fragile peace of the holiday season. The patriarch is found dead, and a fierce snowstorm seals the mansion, cutting off the world beyond its walls. With the phone lines silenced and the road impassable, the house becomes a pressurized crucible where seven women must confront the unknown together, their every step echoed by the howling wind outside.

Lara, fresh from Milan, arrives unexpectedly early, her arrival setting the tone for the uneasy reunion. Elena, the matriarch, bears the weight of generations and hidden expectations, while her younger sister Sofia flits between caretaking and concealed ambitions. The maid, a steady presence in the background, knows the house’s hidden corners. Carla, the teenage daughter, balances youthful curiosity with a budding sense of responsibility. The grandmother, steeped in memory and tradition, offers both comfort and cryptic counsel. Finally, Miriam, a neighbor and former lover of the deceased, is drawn into the storm‑bound tableau by a mysterious summons.

Each woman brings a distinct perspective, shaped by love, duty, rivalry, and long‑held secrets. As they gather around dimly lit rooms and creaking corridors, the atmosphere crackles with a mix of festive nostalgia and mounting dread. The mansion itself, a character of its own, looms with shadowed hallways, locked doors, and the relentless whisper of the snow pressing against the windows.

The film cultivates a mood of claustrophobic intrigue, where every glance can hint at unspoken histories and every muffled footstep may conceal a clue. Amidst the festive décor and the bitter cold, the women’s interactions weave a tapestry of tension and reluctant alliance, inviting the audience to wonder how far they will go to protect one another and uncover what truly lies behind the tragedy that brought them together.
