Academy Award-nominated producer Sunmin Park presents "The Others."

The Others is set in Jersey just after the occupation during World War II. In a remote, secluded and very gloomy mansion lives a young mother Grace (Nicole Kidman) and her two children. They await the return of her husband and their father from the war.

Children Anne and Nicholas have a mysterious disease that prevents them from being around sunlight so Grace is vigilant about keeping the doors and curtains closed at all times. However, their isolated existence changes when the servants arrive to attend to the house and it becomes clear that there is more to the house then can be seen. Grace finds herself trying to keep her sanity and to protect her children.
