A psychological horror film about a pregnant woman fighting to reclaim her body from a family that believes love justifies possession.
以家庭為祭壇的心理恐怖片,描寫一名懷孕女子如何在「母愛」的名義下,奪回被家族與信仰佔據的身體主權。

Longing for warmth and family, Yu-ning follows her husband to a remote mountain house to rest during her pregnancy. There, her mother-in-law Mei-chen takes complete control of her daily life, forcing her into a strict vegetarian diet in the name of “purity” and care. But the house feels wrong. Strange talismans cover the walls, and Yu-ning begins to notice something terrifying: her unborn baby seems to move in time with the weak heartbeats of her dying father-in-law upstairs. After her brother is brutally killed and her senses begin to slip, Yu-ning uncovers the truth. Mei-chen is not preparing for a grandchild’s birth—she is performing a forbidden ritual meant to move her husband’s soul into the unborn baby. Trapped inside a home that has become a living altar, Yu-Ning must tear apart the false image of a loving family. She must make a taboo choice to reclaim her body, her name, and her child’s future.”
渴望家庭溫暖的郁寧,隨丈夫回到深山別墅安胎。婆婆美珍無微不至地強迫她茹素「淨化」,屋內卻佈滿詭異符咒,且郁寧驚覺腹中胎動竟與樓上垂死的公公心跳同步 。在弟弟慘死與感官失控後,郁寧意識到美珍並非在迎接孫子,而是執行禁忌的「借種生魂」儀式,試圖讓公公的靈魂在嬰兒體內重生。郁寧必須打斷這場恐怖轉世,奪回屬於自己的名字與孩子。
