Synopsis

While working on their graffiti pieces in a condemned apartment building, best friends Amélie, Bintou and Morjana discover a name scribbled on one of the walls — Kandisha. Morjana recognises the name as that of a powerful demon found in Moroccan folklore, summoned by women to exact vengeance on men. When Amélie is later assaulted by her ex, she remembers Morjana's story and, angry and upset, impulsively summons the spirit. The next day, her ex is found dead. The legend is true, and now Kandisha is on a killing spree...
