A dark psychological horror that uses stop-motion animation as a window into a fractured mind, blurring the line between creative vision and mental dissolution.

Ella Blake, a stop-motion animator struggling to control her demons after the loss of her overbearing mother, embarks upon the creation of a film that becomes the battleground for her sanity. As Ella’s mind starts to fracture, the characters in her project take on a life of their own.
