CONTENT WARNING:

Director Houston Bone attacks the horror/demon baby genre with gusto in his second feature. Sara is well into her pregnancy and happy in her relationship with bartender Carol when the baby’s father, Troy, makes a surprise appearance back in her life. Against the wishes of Carol, Sara agrees to dinner at Troy’s family estate outside of Toronto so she can meet his mother (a fantastic, scenery-chewing Jane Moffat). A quiet dinner takes a turn to the demonic as Sara discovers the true nature of Troy’s family leading to a wild confrontation between the couple and Satan.

This film is presented in English with English subtitles.

Haunted by the past, siblings Mise’l and Antle are destined to reunite and join forces against a dark spirit that emerges from their shared childhood. Once inseparable, their fractured relationship set by years of silence and a violent episode rooted in homophobia, is tested as they must return to Sk+te’kmujue’kati (the Place of Ghosts) a forest steeped in ancestral memory where time bends. What initiates from trauma soon transforms into an odyssey of healing, as Mise’l and Antle confront their caretaker’s cruelty, the weight of family secrets, and their own deepest fears. Visually stunning and emotionally raw, this extraordinary tale explores how love, even when repressed, can become the fiercest weapon against hate.
