In the Fire
Directed by Conor Allyn
Produced by Angel Oak Films, Paradox Studios
A period-set psychological thriller that pits scientific rationalism against religious superstition in a remote, oppressive setting haunted by ambiguous supernatural forces.
A doctor from New York travels to a remote plantation in the 1890s to care for a disturbed boy who seems to have inexplicable abilities. She begins treating the child, but in doing so, ignites a war between science and religion as the local priest believes the boy is possessed by the devil and the cause of the village's woes.
