Veils

A group of women, each haunted by a past trauma, gather at a remote mountain lodge for a unique and intense therapy retreat. Led by a charismatic but enigmatic therapist, they are encouraged to confront their deepest fears through a series of challenging exercises. As the sessions progress, the lines between healing and manipulation begin to blur, and the women find themselves trapped in a psychological game where the true nature of their tormentors and their own selves are called into question.

Veils received a mixed to negative reception from critics, who often cited its convoluted plot and uneven pacing.

Audience scores were similarly divided, with some appreciating the suspenseful atmosphere and others feeling disappointed by the resolution and perceived predictability.

Google audience: Google users expressed mixed feelings, with many appreciating the film's suspenseful elements and the actresses' efforts. However, a significant portion of viewers found the plot difficult to follow and felt that the film did not deliver a satisfying conclusion, often citing a sense of anticlimax.
