The Holy Boy (2025)

2h 2m 2025 Italy, Slovenia

A physical education instructor relocates to a remote mountain hamlet, where the residents radiate an unnerving, unbroken peace. Before long, he uncovers a sinister weekly tradition: a solitary boy, blessed with the ability to mend the soul through a simple embrace, is used to erase the villagers' suffering. Determined to liberate the child from this twisted arrangement, the teacher’s own buried darkness begins to surface, igniting a confrontation that threatens to shatter the town's fragile calm.
