When her estranged mother Noelle mysteriously dies, Belle finds herself back in Southern California, dealing with her mother's considerable debts and grappling with lingering questions about her death. The stakes escalate when a strange woman in red appears at the funeral, offering a tantalizing clue about her mother's demise, followed by a cryptic video about a transformative spa experience. With the help of a pair of red shoes, Belle is lured into the barbed embrace of \u003ci\u003eLa Maison de Méduse\u003c\/i\u003e, the same lavish, culty spa to which her mother was devoted. There, Belle discovers the frightening secret behind her (and her mother's) obsession with the mirror--and the great shimmering depths (and demons) that lurk on the other side of the glass. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSnow White \u003c\/i\u003emeets \u003ci\u003eEyes Wide Shut\u003c\/i\u003e in this surreal descent into the dark side of beauty, envy, grief, and the complicated love between mothers and daughters.
