Summary
- A woman insists on a winter forest cabin birth against midwife's advice.
- What begins as a family drama devolves into occult horror.

A debut film explores the intense experience of childbirth, focusing initially on the interpersonal dynamics surrounding an expectant mother, Goody, who decides to give birth in a deep winter forest cabin. Her husband Jayson, his doula sister Candace, and their midwife Sarah are present for the home birth.
Despite Sarah's concerns about the remote location and potential difficulty reaching a hospital, Goody's insistence prevails. The film builds tension through carefully layered details, highlighting the stifling perfectionism of the household and the psychological undercurrents between the family members.
However, the narrative takes a sharp turn from psychological drama to outright horror as the situation devolves into an occult nightmare. As Goody experiences terrifying contractions and begins to rave about demonic entities, the midwife and family face escalating supernatural events, including a confrontation with a creature.
