★★★★☆ (4/5) Best watched: In a dark room with good headphones or surround sound.
Julia (Belén Rueda) is a woman slowly losing her sight to the same degenerative disease that caused her twin sister Sara to go blind and later die under mysterious circumstances. Convinced Sara didn’t commit suicide, Julia investigates — only to realize that her own fading vision makes her the perfect prey for a hidden killer who may be watching her every move. The film masterfully uses visual impairment as both a plot device and a source of sustained dread.
