The Falls (2021)

Other name: 瀑布, Pu Bu, Падение

Description:

The Falls plunges viewers into the suffocating reality of a mother and daughter trapped together during quarantine. What begins as a test of patience quickly devolves as the forced isolation peels back layers of their strained relationship. Past resentments, long-buried and ignored, surface with venomous intensity, magnified by the confinement. The unexpected turn arrives when one of them starts exhibiting unsettling changes, prompting the other to question everything she thought she knew. As their psychological walls crumble, a dark secret, carefully hidden for years, threatens to unravel the very foundation of their bond. The Falls becomes a metaphor for their accelerating descent into a truth far more terrifying than the world outside, forcing them to confront a shattering reality that will forever redefine their lives, for better or worse.
