The Witches

Summer England. A damp hotel lobby yields to a child’s hushed breath against frosted glass. Luke watches witches in human form, their gloves twitching like spiders. Grandmother Helga listens, then patrols the halls with a rolling pin wrapped in newspaper. Roeg shoots fairy tale as fever dream.
