Deep in the woods, Adam lives in a cabin and spends his days hunting, shooting at cans... and waiting for a creature called SATOR. For years, the shapeless fiend has been influencing the family. Manipulating them, driving them mad, whispering, hissing, interfering. Adam's goal is to get closer to the entity, to question its meaning and find explanations for dead people in the family. But the forest is silent until one day SATOR breaks the silence.
Jordan Graham goes deep into his own family history and explores themes of mental illness and dementia. The grandmother in this film is his actual grandmother. A woman who has forgotten everyone around her. Everyone except SATOR. You can't describe films like this, you can't fathom them. They lurk, whisper and hiss and manipulate us. SATOR is an intense, disturbing and frightening film that has long outlived its "insider tip" rating. Great cinema!
