The film was marketed as being shot in [[TheOner one long, continuous take]], and is supposedly based on real events that happened in the 1940s.
The plot follows Laura and her father, Wilson, as they arrive at a run-down cottage in a secluded area in order to repair it since its owner, Nestor, will soon put the house on sale. Before selling, Nestor tells them that the floor on the second level is unstable and that it is unsafe to go upstairs. Laura and Wilson intend to spend the night there in order to start the repairs the next morning. As Laura tries to sleep, however, she hears a sound upstairs. At Laura's insistence, Wilson goes up to see what is going on while Laura remains downstairs.
Things get worse from then on as Laura tries to escape from the house and ends up discovering the dark secret it hides...
It was [[ForeignRemake remade for American audiences]] in 2012, titled ''Film/SilentHouse''.
