Noemi is fierce, loving, and whip smart. Stunning modern magical realism/horror that tackles colonial violence and violence against women. A beautifully terrifying look at what it takes to fight back set in a decrepit house in the mountains of rural Mexico. Mycology, anthropology, and mystery abound! Heavy on gore, violence, and psychological terror.
