A young American woman takes a job as a nanny in a remote English village, soon discovering that the family's eight-year-old son is a life-sized doll that comes with a list of strict rules.
A remote English estate becomes a psychological cage when a new nanny discovers the child she is meant to care for is actually a porcelain doll. Strict rules and eerie movements turn a quiet domestic job into a chilling game of survival.
