A possession horror film that grounds supernatural terror in the intimate stakes of a mother fighting to protect her family while battling both demonic forces and institutional suspicion.

Ebony Jackson, a struggling single mother fighting her personal demons, moves her family into a new home for a fresh start. But when strange occurrences inside the home raise the suspicions of Child Protective Services and threaten to tear the family apart, Ebony soon finds herself locked in a battle for her life and the souls of her children.
