Synopsis
Abigail sits in a café, celebrating her fortieth anniversary with her husband. However, she seems troubled by something. When questioned, she begins to recount a recurring nightmare she’s been
having. A nightmare that she can’t seem to shake.
With visions of her younger self, a monstrous beach, and a mysterious drowned figure, Abigail is tormented by the ghosts of her past. What’s more, as her story goes on, she can’t help but feel that her nightmare is bleeding out into the real world.
With the lines between dream and reality blurring, Abigail is forced to confront her trauma, facing the repressed guilt behind this nightmare. As she draws closer to the truth, she must discover the second, more sinister meaning behind this anniversary.
