A harrowing psychological thriller about cult trauma and fractured identity, where escape proves impossible because the damage lives inside.

After several years of living with a cult, Martha finally escapes and calls her estranged sister, Lucy, for help.

As flashbacks continue to torment her, Martha fails to shake a terrible sense of dread, especially in regard to the cult's manipulative leader.
