Synopsis
In the house down the lane, a very strange 13-year-old girl resides. Alone. She won't let anyone down into the basement, which might be connected to the fact that no one has seen her father lately. Then there's the neighborhood child molester, who won't give the girl any peace...

Critics' reviews
- "Nicolas Gessner's direction has a correspondingly comfortable feel, but this type of story is as old as the hills—no, older—and Mr. Gessner doesn't do much to make it plausible."
- "Gessner's film may be for Foster completists only. But the intensity of her dead-eyed stare as the final credits scroll across her face reminds us of her preternatural ability"
- "A disturbing, wonderfully acted, well-scripted, and suspenseful study of a murderous 13-year-old girl."
