Sisters Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Brigitte (Emily Perkins), live in the small town of Bailey Downs. On the night of Ginger’s first period, she is attacked by a wild creature. When her wounds miraculously heal, it becomes obvious that something is not quite right! A brilliant coming of age story and monster movie in one.

"A Quietly Subversive My-Sister-Is-Turning-Into-A-Werewolf Movie That Doesn’t Wimp Out At The End." Derek Elley, Variety
