One of Us

A slow, suffocating look at grief and suspicion in a remote community, where every quiet moment carries the weight of what's been hidden.

How it feels: Dark, bleak, melancholic and tense. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Grief, family, deception, guilt
Content: Strong violence. Mild gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
