On the last day of high school in 1959, five students learn that they will not graduate unless they work together to finish a school project. On their way to a secluded farm, crazy circumstances and bad weather trap them in a mysterious, vacant church deep in the South Louisiana swamp. It's here where nothing seems to make sense and where each is forced to face their biggest fears.
