A relentless, gore-soaked possession horror that escalates from a single farmhouse infection into a cascading apocalypse of demonic contagion, driven by dread and body horror rather than hope.

When brothers Pedro and Jimi discover that a demonic infection has been festering in a nearby farmhouse, they attempt to evict the victim from their land. Failing to adhere to the proper rites of exorcism, their reckless actions inadvertently trigger an epidemic of possessions across their rural community.
