Milica lives with her mother, Vukica, and grandfather, Milutin, in the wilderness of the mountains in Kosovo, on an estate encircled by thick woods. Every night, the family barricades themselves in the house, horrified by the terror coming from the woods. Is that horror of their encircled house just an echo of the recent war or only their fantasy, as the KFOR-officials keep telling them? There is no palpable evidence that something bad is happening, but every night, their fear grows stronger....

Jonathan Romney Screen International True to its title, this is a film that works all the better the longer it keeps us in the dark. Dec 8, 2022 Full Review Frank J. Avella Awards Daily Dušan Milić’s harrowing feature, Darkling is set in post-war Kosovo when pogroms against the Serb population were at an extreme...This gripping film builds to an intense final reel but would have had more power if it had ended just a few minutes early. Rated: B Dec 27, 2022 Full Review Ema Sasic Next Best Picture Despite its less-than-stellar final act, Milić has crafted an atmospheric film that will stay with audiences and leave a haunting impression.
