A slow-burn folk horror film that uses isolation, religious dread, and mounting paranoia to explore how faith and suspicion can corrode a family from within.

In 1630, a farmer relocates his family to a remote plot of land on the edge of a forest where strange, unsettling things happen. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, each family member's faith, loyalty and love are tested in shocking ways.
