A dark, grief-haunted horror film that uses a mother's desperate guilt over her missing son to explore the terrifying cost of redemption and the supernatural forces that prey on desperation.

A young mother who's crushed by guilt and shame after the disappearance of her young son five years previously, is offered a bizarre opportunity to learn the truth and set things right. Is she willing to pay the terrifying price for a chance to hold her boy again?
