Synopsis
A devil, a deal, and a woman who won’t play by the rules.
A charming devil strolls into the quiet village of Edmonton, ready to strike a deal—your soul in exchange for your deepest desire. Easy enough. But when he sets his sights on Elizabeth, long ostracized as a “witch,” she refuses to be bought. Darkly funny, subversive, and razor-sharp, Witch is a wickedly modern take on a Jacobean drama, where power is up for grabs, survival is a gamble, and the devil might just be the most honest one in the room.
