Dark
A missing child causes four families to help each other for answers. What they could not imagine is that this mystery would be connected to innumerable other secrets of the small town.
Sphinx
Early one morning, 14-year-old Minke Moorman is kidnapped. Three years later she reappears out of nowhere, completely feral and with a mysterious wing tattoo on her back. After her return, the entire family comes under pressure. Minke has been changed by her traumatic experience and, without anyone knowing, she is still being played by her captor from the shadows.
