After her widowed father dies, deaf teenager Dot moves in with her godparents, Olivia and Paul Deer. The Deers' daughter, Nina, is openly hostile to Dot, but that does not prevent her from telling her secrets to her silent stepsister, including the fact that she wants to kill her lecherous father.

A masterclass at suspense that handles the difficult topic of father daughter incest with prestige. It uses color, and shooting style to differentiate how things appear to an out observer vs someone in the family. The use of imagery is amazing.

Disturbs the Comfortable, Comforts the Disturbed

People always talk about the quiet before the storm but no one talks about the quiet after.
