Suggesting a turn towards the gothic for Hogg, the film, billed as a “ghost story” and a “mystery-drama”, will follow the story of a middle-aged daughter (Swinton) and her elderly mother, who must confront long-buried secrets when they return to their former family home, a once-grand manor that has become a nearly vacant hotel.
