When Eva, a young woman from Berlin, moves into a remote retreat that prides themselves on preparing the deaf for the harsh realities of the hearing world, the fragile ecosystem of the suspicious operation comes to light. As clients practice physical activities and spiritual reconciliation, Eva begins to question what they are actually being prepared for and why nobody seems to leave. Shot entirely in British Sign Language, RETREAT took home the Sundance Audience Award and has been praised as a masterclass in suspense, making it one of this year’s must see thrillers.
