Yakov wants to break away from strict Hasidic Orthodoxy and is attending a support group for help. When his former rabbi asks him to keep vigil over a dead body, Yakov is less than enthusiastic, but agrees because he urgently needs money. And so it begins: During the nocturnal vigil, he is plagued by demonic forces, Holocaust traumas and an aimlessly wandering widow. Here, Jewish elements intelligently enhance the horror-shocker genre. Goosebumps are certainly guaranteed.
