Ahead of its release this coming week, IndiePix Films has shared a trailer for the psychological horror-thriller Burning from director Radik Eshimov, which adopts a fractured-truth storytelling approach in the classic Rashomon tradition; check out the trailer below…
In a village where grief hangs heavier than smoke, a house begins to burn — and no one can agree on why. A young family has just buried their firstborn son. In the weeks that follow, the mother wanders from door to door, pleading for help no one understands, then vanishes into the trees at the forest’s edge. The father’s mother arrives, uninvited, unexplained. And then, one night, the house is consumed by fire.
What happened inside stays inside — except for what the neighbors think they saw. At the village shop, three witnesses trade fragments of the same night, and each fragment curdles into something darker than the last. A curse, some whisper. Others say it was grief itself, turned monstrous. Every retelling shifts the blame to a different member of the family, and every new detail makes the ones before it feel like lies. By the time the full picture assembles, the line between what happened and what the village needed to believe has dissolved entirely. And somewhere between fact and folklore, in the space no single witness can see, the real horror is waiting — patient, and closer than anyone thought.
Burning will premiere on IndiePix Unlimited on September 4th 2026.
