Synopsis

Nevena is a feral 16 year-old girl living in a rural Macedonian village who is doomed to become a witch by an ancient spirit. Having taken a human form of her slayed victim, she slowly adjusts to human life but will that be enough to overcome her fate? You Won’t Be Alone is a non-traditional, darkly beautiful witch-tale featuring the riveting performance by Sara Klimoska as Nevana. In his feature directorial debut, Goran Stolevski unveils his unique creative direction aided by Matthew Chuang’s spell cinematography, to present one of the most inventive folk horror films in recent times.
