Luciferous Page #2

Synopsis: In a high-rise apartment young parents Alex and Mahsa live with their seven-year-old daughter Mina. Everything about the family is completely normal, uncomfortably real: Their home, their jobs, her school, the way they hold and love each other. The line between fact and fiction is blurred because THEY ARE A REAL family. Until completely normal turns into what they fear the most. Alex's injury opens the door to a malevolent force that attacks and dismantles the family one person at a time: A violent aggressor determined to prove that possession is real, unconscionably disturbing and very different from how it's depicted in the movies.
Director(s): Mahsa Ghorbankarimi (co-director), Alexander Gorelick (co-director)

needs a few more days.

He's gonna be okay.

He's gonna be alright.

- Mina ma ma, wake up.

It's time to go to school.

- Is daddy awake?

- Not yet.

- I needed to tell

him something.

His friend was here last night,

and he said that I have to

say hello to daddy for him.

- Which friend?

- I don't know which friend,

he just said that he was

daddy's friend.

- Weird dream, huh?

- No, he was actually there.

- Okay, okay, come

on, you'll be late.

- Can you wake up when

I come back from school?

- Oh no, I'm not

going back to work.

I still don't feel comfortable

leaving him at home.

Yeah, thank you.

The nurses still

comes once a day.

I don't need any help

here mom, I'm okay.

If you just get Mina from

school, that'd be fantastic.

- She was practicing karate

and punching the other day.

She said the next time

you take her for practice,

she doesn't want to be rusty.

- Can I kiss your mustache?

Moma, how do you spell airplane?

- Shhh, what is it?

- How do you spell airplane?

- Oh, a-i-r-p-l-a-n-e.

- Thanks.

Mommy, my mittens.

- Shhhh, daddy's sleeping.

Come, we are really late.

Come on, run.

Run, run, run.

- Ready or not, here I come.

- Gotcha!

Too much noise, let's play in

the hallway, grab a sweater.

- Mommy.

Mommy.

Mommy.

Mommy.

- Gotcha!

- You scared me!

- Now you know how it feels

when you scare somebody.

- You actually

scared me this time.

- Oh ma ma, I'm so sorry, I

didn't know you were gonna

actually get scared.

- But you said no

hiding in the staircase.

But what if you guys

just suddenly disappear,

and then I have to get sent

to the orphanage by somebody?

- Oh, Mina.

Always going to have

your mommy and daddy.

Always, always, mommy and

daddy are going to be with you.

- Of course baby, I'm

feeling a lot better now.

You've stayed home long enough.

- So baby please,

just a lot of rest.

No unnecessary walking around.

Yes?

- Of course.

- I love you so much.

- Hi baby.

Alex, are you okay?

You were supposed

to be resting today.

- Three, two, one, action.

Hi, this is my daddy,

and this is me,

and we're playing dress up,

and my daddy is filming it.

My daddy had a bad accident,

so I decided to dress him up

but he didn't look that pretty

when he had the accident.

So I decided to

make him handsome.

Daddy, go look at

yourself in the mirror.

- Okay.

- You're not even supposed

to be walking right now.

You totally forgot everything

that the doctor say,

you know the consequences if

you don't recover properly.

- Baby, I'm not suggesting.

- Don't baby me,

this is not a joke.

- I'm not joking,

I need to go back to work.

We have bills to pay and

there's no way you can pay
