About the movie

Greta is a young American woman who takes a job as a nanny in a remote English village, only to discover that the family`s 8-year-old is a life-sized doll that the parents care for just like a real boy, as a way to cope with the death of their actual son 20 years prior. After violating a list of strict rules, a series of disturbing and inexplicable events bring Greta`s worst nightmare to life, leading her to believe that the doll is actually alive. Greta learns the horrifying details about the Heelshire family`s disturbing past, leading to realize that she wasn`t just hired she was chosen.
