The synopsis: “THE SOURCE OF SHADOWS is a suspenseful anthology film which depicts 10 tales of horror from 12 visionary directors as they take viewers on a journey to experience one of humanity’s most carnal fears—the fear of the unknown. This series of short vignettes weaves together dire tales of the creatures we can’t always see, the shadows hiding around the corner, the mysterious sounds in the darkness and much more. THE SOURCE OF SHADOWS offers up a chance for viewers to ask themselves: ‘What are we afraid of?’ ”
