A haunting, turn-of-the-century mystery where a child's nightmares blur with a town's dark reality, exploring the presence of death itself amid vanishing innocence.

In a small port town, at the turn of the century, children are disappearing. A mysterious man in black who stalks the town may be Death itself. And nine-year-old Laurin is suffering terrifying dreams and hallucinations of a man carrying a sack and frightened children calling for help from behind closed windows.
