In a dim, claustrophobic apartment in post-war Europe, a man is tasked with caring for a young girl named Mia, whose teeth must be repeatedly replaced with ice prosthetics to manage a mysterious condition. Their isolated existence is governed by ritual, silence, and control, until subtle disruptions begin to unsettle the fragile balance of their routine. Lucile Hadžihalilović’s Earwig is a slow-burning, enigmatic work of psychological unease. Told with austere precision, it unfolds as a meditation on dependency, control, and transformation.

Screening followed by an in-person Q&A with director Lucile Hadžihalilović and screenwriter Geoff Cox.
