A supernatural horror film centered on a cursed girl trapped in a haunted school dormitory, where mysterious drownings and ghost sightings create an atmosphere of dread and spiritual entrapment.

High school student Aya Tsukimori becomes cursed and is unable to leave her school dormitory. Meanwhile, many students begin reporting ghost sightings at the school, while others go missing and are later discovered to have drowned mysteriously. Soon, Aya attempts to communicate with fellow student Michi Kazato, who begins investigating the disappearances of her friends.
