The plot of Inside, courtesy of Balagueró (who is also serving as executive producer) and his usual writing partner Manu Díez, will follow a pregnant woman who has just been left a partially deaf widow, following an accident she was involved in with her husband. Now, on the cusp of giving birth, she lives in an isolated house on the outskirts of a city, where one night around Christmas she receives a visit that is as unexpected as it is disturbing: from a woman who is prepared to do everything in her power to snatch her unborn baby away from her.
