You Won’t Be Alone

Set in an isolated mountain village in 19th century Macedonia, You Won’t Be Alone follows a young girl who is kidnapped and then transformed into a witch by an ancient spirit. Curious about life as a human, the young witch accidentally kills a peasant in the nearby village and then takes her victim’s shape to live life in her skin. Her curiosity ignited, she continues to wield this horrific power in order to understand what it means to be human.  This haunting, unsettling, utterly unique folk/horror debut feature from Australian filmmaker Goran Stolevski stars Noomi Rapace, Alice Englert and Carloto Cotta.
