Swallow
Hunter appears to lead a perfect life alongside Richie, her husband who has just taken over the family business. But once she becomes pregnant, she develops a compulsive eating disorder known as Pica, characterized by the ingestion of various objects. Her husband and in-laws then decide to control her every move to prevent the worst from happening: her harming the Conrad family lineage. But could this strange and uncontrollable obsession be concealing an even more terrible secret?
