Nicole Kidman stars as Grace, a strong-willed woman who lives isolated with her two children in their Jersey Mansion towards the end of the Second World War. Grace, who awaits the return of her soldier husband, is highly protective of her two children, who have a rare allergy to sunlight. Three servants arrive to help in the running of the household. Grace at first attributes the strange noises to the new arrivals but then begins to suspect whether there could be ‘Others’ in the house. A chilling, suspense laden ghost story, skilfully directed.
