Tortured by memories of childhood trauma, Jenibel returns, after a decade away, to her family's fly-in hunting lodge to assist her siblings with their dying father, only to find herself stuck in a life-threatening nightmare.
Summoned by her dying father, Jenibel Heath (Shenae Grimes-Beech), after a decade away, reluctantly returns to her beautiful island home, a remote fly-in hunting and fishing lodge.
In a harrowing passage through guilt, loyalty, and devastating memories, Jenibel navigates an obstacle course of personal torment that pushes her psyche to the breaking point.
As a child, following the suicide of her emotionally fragile mother, Jenibel was sent away from her Northern Ontario island home, to be raised and schooled by her aunt in England.
Her younger sister, Linda, born with down-syndrome, reminds Jenibel that she has been gone a very long time, effectively abandoning the entire family.
Saddled with the burden of this dying wish, Jenibel learns that Marvin has left the family property, assets, and debts, to be shared between herself and her angry brother, Neil.
Jenibel begins to have strange visions, or waking dreams – nightmarish and terrifying – involving her dead parents, deep-felt guilt, and even lucid fantasies that the island itself wants to swallow her whole.
The film was shot on two remote islands in Georgian Bay, near the small town of Britt in the Parry Sound area of Ontario Canada in the fall of 2015.
