The Devil’s Bath

Friday, June 21 - Thursday, July 4, 2024

An unnerving psychological thriller that swept Austria’s Oscars, winning Best Picture, Actress, Supporting Actress, Cinematography, Editing and Score, THE DEVIL’S BATH is the latest from the directors of Goodnight Mommy and The Lodge. In a rural village in 1750, Agnes, a deeply religious woman, has just married her beloved, but her mind and heart soon grow heavy as her life becomes a long list of chores and expectations. Day after day, she is increasingly trapped in a murky and lonely path leading to evil thoughts, until the possibility of committing a shocking act of violence seems like the only way out of her inner prison.
