Actors: Aaron Moorhead, Justin Benson, Callie Hernandez
PlotTwo brothers, Justin and Aaron, struggle to make ends meet in their mundane lives after escaping a cult they once belonged to. The cult, based in a rural commune, believed in supernatural entities and time loops. One day, the brothers receive a cryptic video message from the group, which reignites their curiosity and prompts them to seek closure by visiting the commune. Upon their arrival, they are greeted warmly and notice that the apparent age of members remains unsettlingly stagnant despite years having passed. Intrigued by inexplicable events and eager to rediscover forgotten memories, they decide to stay longer to uncover the truth behind the cult's peculiar beliefs.
As they delve deeper, Justin and Aaron witness increasingly strange phenomena that blur the line between reality and illusion. Serene routines of daily life within the commune give way to an unsettling sense of déjà vu, with time seemingly behaving erratically around them. The brothers encounter bizarre entities and face disturbing revelations about the true nature of their surroundings. Their bond is tested as they confront buried grievances and the disquieting possibility that the cult may have a peculiar yet undeniable grasp on time and existence. Ultimately, they must reconcile their past with an uncertain future while grappling with incomprehensible forces at play.
