When the naked body of a teenage girl is found on the banks of the River Baztán, it is quickly linked to a similar murder one month before. Soon, rumours are flying in the nearby village of Elizondo. Is this the work of a ritualistic killer or is it the basajaun, the ‘invisible guardian’ of Basque mythology? Inspector Amaia Salazar leads the investigation, taking her back to the heart of the Basque country where she was born, and where she hoped never to return. Shrouded in mist and surrounded by impenetrable forests, it is a place of unresolved conflicts and a terrible secret from Amaia’s childhood that will come back to haunt her. Faced with the superstitions of the village, Amaia must fight the demons of her past to confront the reality of a serial killer on the loose. But as she is drawn deeper into the investigation, she feels the presence of something darker lurking in the shadows…

I found this movie on Netflix by accident and was mesmerized by it. The story took me into a world I did not know yet resonated with my own horrific childhood and that of the heroine of this movie. All of the elements of the film were like a nightmare that you see through the eyes of the heroine and how she comes to grips with the horror of what is going in her home town and how members of her own family may be involved. She also has to deal with reopened wounds by verbal confrontations from her family, townspeople and strangers. Her strength is constantly challenged and commendable. I recommend this movie as it is haunting and a testament to the strength of a child surviving a mother's loathing.

This film was well directed by Fernando González Molina, made the audience totally engrossed and wanting more and more as time passed to know the outcome. Two actors stood out the most, being of the same character, the main actor, Amaia Salazar who was played by Marta Etura and the one who portrayed her as a child. I would have to say that I was more intrigued by Amaia's past than the actual case itself. And many things disturbed my mind, but sadly was never answered by the end of the movie. Firstly, I wanted to know what was the reason her mother hated her so much, calling her a "bitch" and saying that she wanted to eat her. Secondly, (maybe I missed it) what happened to her father? I never saw or heard of him in the present tense of the film. Thirdly, did her eldest sister Flora hate her so much because she never knew what her mother did to her as a child and think that Amaia simply abandoned her family as she often says in the movie? And since all this were never answered in the film, it makes me wonder still...I much recommend this movie to any.

The story line wasn't very realistic for then handling crime scenes, not dealing with conflict of interests and portrait her was weak for a detective. If she was a detective and good at what she does not sure why she called her Mentor.The overall plot was interesting. Would have been more believable if these issues were addressed.
