Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Bustillo and Maury made this after Inside (2007) specifically to prove they could do 'emotional' horror—studios kept typecasting them as torture porn guys.
The ballerina imagery throughout isn't just atmosphere—it's a direct reference to Jessel's backstory as a dancer, and the 'performance' of motherhood she forces on Anna.
