Synopsis

Funeral ceremonies in the attic of a sinister villa. The old aunt gathers her great-grandnieces around a child’s coffin to pray. Clasped hands, furtive glances, rosaries clutched to the chest are the ingredients of an eccentric children’s show in which the illustrious group stumbles between intimidation, rebellion and a perilous staircase, ultimately questioning the meaning of existence.
