The Home

After many years away from his small hometown, Joel makes the journey back to help move his mother, Monika, into an assisted living facility designed for seniors dealing with dementia. Soon after settling in, Monika’s health rapidly declines. She begins to have frightening hallucinations of her deceased husband—Joel’s abusive father—and displays aggressive and violent tendencies. Joel becomes convinced that some dark, supernatural force is taking hold of his mother. However, given his own struggles with substance abuse and mental health issues, he questions whether his perceptions are reliable. As Monika’s memories continue to fade, Joel is forced to face his own unresolved past, confronting personal demons that resurface amid the haunting environment of his childhood home.
