When his young daughter is mysteriously swept out to sea, James, a struggling alcoholic, becomes convinced she was taken by a monster. He searches the surrounding woods alone and finds nothing. But when people around him start dying, he is the only one who believes what is really killing them, a creature drawn from Japanese folklore, according to the filmmakers.
Gabriel Casdorph (Killers of the Flower Moon) stars as James, opposite Meranda Long (Survival Skills). Erich Cannon directs the Oregon-shot feature.
The film arrives after a limited theatrical and festival run that included the Best Feature award at the Old Towne Film Festival and Best Narrative Feature at the Unisphere Film Festival in Queens, New York. It also screened internationally at the 45th FantaFestival in Rome, Cine de Terror in Valparaíso, Chile, and MICMXIFF in Mexico City.
