When a traveling carnival comes to a small Scottish village in the late 1990s, it stirs up witchery and long-held resentment. It follows multiple characters who are not fully fleshed out. It's also slow-paced, and I was ready for it to be over about halfway through. The concepts and diverse characters are interesting, but the pacing is off.
