Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Gregorini originally developed this as a short film about her own experience with a neighbor's stillborn child, which explains the queasy authenticity of Emanuel's compulsion to participate in Linda's delusion.
The water imagery throughout — bathtubs, aquariums, rain — was achieved almost entirely practically, with Scodelario performing multiple submerged takes without heated tanks.
