Synopsis
The Innocents (2021) is a Norwegian horror film from Eskil Vogt you can watch online on iFILM, where four kids spend a summer discovering powers the adults never see.
Nine-year-old Ida moves to a quiet apartment block with her parents and her older sister Anna, who is autistic and mostly silent. Out in the courtyard she meets Ben, a boy who can move things with his mind, and Aisha, who starts picking up Anna's thoughts. At first it's a game. Then one child's gift turns cruel, and the play stops being harmless.
Vogt, co-writer of The Worst Person in the World, builds slow daylight dread where the violence lands harder because children are behind it. No jump scares — the fear sits in still shots of empty playgrounds and the brakeless logic of kids. One for viewers who like quiet, watchful horror in the vein of The Others and Scandinavian restraint. Stream The Innocents (2021) online on iFILM.
