'Waking the Witch' is a psychological thriller about a teenage girl called Marianne. She's killing time on her summer holidays by accompanying her uncle on a research trip, looking into the life and death of the last witch to be burned in Ireland. Something is weighing heavy on Marianne's mind that's beginning to cause psychological schisms, making it increasingly difficult to separate her subconscious from waking life. The suggestion of a supernatural force grows stronger, guiding the hand of fate.
