A young cleaning woman, Anna (Virginie
Ledoyen), sent to spruce up the abandoned
St. Ange orphanage in the remotes of the French
Alps in 1960, discovers that only one orphan, Judith
(Lou Doillon), still
lives there. As she sets about her scrubbing duties,
Anna begins to experience some very strange things,
like hearing the footsteps and voices of children
down the long lonely hallways. Meanwhile, her coworker,
Helenka (Dorina Lazar),
doesn't hear a thing, and begins to worry about
Anna's state of mind
