US-HER

<p>ENG
Trapped in a house where time has stopped, G lives among shadows and memories that relentlessly haunt him. His mother, numbed by pain, has sought refuge in silence, but he cannot do the same. When eerie presences emerge from the past, G is forced to face an inescapable nightmare—an endless cycle, a ritual doomed to repeat itself. To break free, he must confront his demons… or become one of them.</p>

Sua madre, anestetizzata dal dolore, si è rifugiata nel silenzio, ma lui non può fare lo stesso. Quando strane presenze emergono dal passato, G è costretto a confrontarsi con un incubo ineluttabile: un ciclo senza fine, un rituale destinato a ripetersi. Per spezzarlo, dovrà affrontare i suoi mostri o diventare uno di loro.</p>
