"His House" not only exposes the horror of the immigration system, but also deeply digs out the guilt of refugee survivors. It is an exquisitely designed and creepy horror film
. The director did not simply use "", but meticulously arranged the ubiquitous footsteps and lurking shadows, and gradually revealed the mysterious past of the protagonist and his wife through these horror elements
, revealing the complexity of the refugees. The tragic reality of fear
. Photographer Joe Williams worked closely with art director Jacqueline Abrahams to use cool blue as the main color in the British scene, which contrasted sharply with the warm tones in the African scene. In addition, the well-designed lighting makes the protagonist's dark skin obvious enough in the dim and scary environment

Rial: My mother used to tell me a story.
[pause]
Rial: In our village, there was once an honorable but poor man who wanted a home of his own. He wanted it so badly, he began to steal from others. One day... he stole from an old man who lived by the river. He didn't know that this man was an apeth. A night witch. And so the thief could not know that when he built his home... the apeth, too, would live there. So, before long, the walls would whisper the spells of the apeth. From the shadows... the dead would come. The apeth would not stop... until he had consumed the man entirely.
[pause]
Rial: An apeth has arisen from the ocean. It has followed us here. It spoke to me.
