Hansel & Gretel

In a shadow‑draped version of a quiet town, two teenage siblings find themselves lured deep into a forest that feels older than the trees themselves. The woods seem to whisper promises of escape while concealing something far more unsettling. When they finally stumble upon a lone, foreboding house, the air turns thick with dread, hinting at secrets that have been hidden for far too long.

Hansel, a brooding young man who has spent years hunting the arcane, returns to his hometown after hearing unsettling news about a friend, Mason. He seeks out his sister, Gretel, who has turned a modest bakery into a place of refuge for the town’s weary. Their reunion is charged with unspoken tension, each carrying the weight of their divergent paths—one drawn to the hunt, the other to the comforts of home—while an ominous presence watches from the darkness.

The film’s tone is a relentless blend of classic fairy‑tale wonder twisted into modern horror. The oppressive atmosphere of the secluded home, with its cracked walls and lingering aromas, cultivates a feeling of entrapment and curiosity. As the siblings navigate this nightmarish setting, they must confront the unsettling reality that the very place they hoped to find safety may hold the keys to a far more terrifying destiny.
