The new thriller drama Curon takes place in a Northern Italian village known for a sunken bell tower in a dark lake adjacent to town. We flash to a situation where a teenager named Anna (Mihaela Dorlan) is greeted by her mother Lilli (Katja Lechthaler) and is told she understands Anna’s situation completely. Her father Thomas (Luca Lionello) tells her to hide in her room when an invader arrives. But when she comes downstairs, she sees someone shooting her mother with her father’s rifle. When the woman turns around, Anna is shocked to see her own face. In the car heading through the darkness is an adult Anna Raina (Valeria Bilello) with her 17-year old twins, rebellious daughter Daria (Margherita Morchio) and more introverted, hearing-impaired son Mauro (Federico Russo). They are escaping a bad situation in Milan and returning to Curon, where Anna left 17 years ago after her mother allegedly shot herself. Mauro is fascinated at the sunken town that’s in a dark lake adjacent to town, and sends his drone out to look, but it gets lost in the blackness and his phone can’t communicate with it. When the Rainas get to the creepy-looking in that Anna’s parents owned, they think they’re alone, until the twins run into their grandfather, whom they’ve never met before. He’s creepier than the inn, and he immediately tells Anna that she should have never returned to Curon. He reluctantly agrees to let them stay the night, but Anna is awakened by a wolf howling, and the twins are awakened by a thumping noise. Apparently, word has spread that Anna is back in town. When one of the usual power outages happens, everything goes black, and both twins fall in the water at the same time. Daria has a dream that she’s in the woods facing an intruder, but Mauro has a waking nightmare when he goes back to the inn and finally finds out why that room is locked.
