Quang, a destitute man arrives to collect the body of his wife, Nhu, a woman taken from him too soon by a tragic accident. But grief takes an unthinkable turn when Quang discovers her lifeless form has been possessed by a malevolent spirit, her body now a vessel of unnatural life. Desperate and tormented, Quang embarks on a harrowing journey to restore balance and peace, seeking the aid of a local mystic, Master Mo, who holds the key to expelling the spirit. Yet, as the ritual unfolds, he is faced with an impossible decision: to banish the entity and sever his final connection to the woman he loves or live with a cruel illusion that allows evil spirit to revitalize her corpse.

Like all modern societal phenomenons, it started with a meme. This one highlighted that when there’s a mom in a Pixar film, she is almost without fail given striking curves that highlight the bottom half of her body following a minuscule waist. From Elastigirl to the skeletal Mama Imelda, the animation giant’s artists seem to have a fixation on making exaggeratedly curvy maternal characters.
