What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
The villagers' suspicions focus on newcomers after a barn fire and amid fears of social disruption.
The unnamed village, undefined era, and seven hallucinatory days create a suspended rural world.
The village's disappearance and the film's hallucinatory seven-day structure turn period drama into surreal social fable.
The plot combines newcomers, scapegoating, xenophobia, and landgrabbing within an agrarian hierarchy.
