SYNOPSIS

Written by Jaime Marques and Nico Casariego, this is the story of two young children, separated by a thousand miles across half a continent, caught up in the same nightmare that is fast becoming horrifyingly real. In Madrid, Juan (Izan Corchero) is a ferociously bright 8 year-old who loves to tell stories. His mother, Luisa (Pilar Lopez de Ayala), worries that her son’s fertile imagination is fuelling the vivid and increasingly alarming dreams that disrupt his sleep each night. But for Juan, the gruesome faceless creature that enters his bedroom in the dead hours is terrifyingly real. In London, Mia (Ella Purnell), an 11 year-old girl on the brink of adolescence, discovers the power of story-telling as she captivates her classmates with a disturbing tale of a blank faced ghoul called Hollowface who tries to steal the features of children as he craves contact with the human world.

Mia, too, becomes convinced that her story has crossed over from the realms of imagination into reality and that she has unwittingly unleashed a malevolent force into the world. At night, she is haunted by horrifically graphic nightmares. At first, her father John (Clive Owen) believes that Mia is under threat from an all too real intruder who breaks into his daughter’s bedroom, leaving her speechless with fear. He chases the stalker off and then becomes security obsessed in a bid to protect her, installing cameras and sophisticated surveillance equipment at their home. During a second break in, John again fights with the vicious intruder intent on snatching a traumatised Mia. But later, when the security footage is checked, there’s no sign of a prowler on the tape and a sceptical detective says there's no physical evidence of a break in.
