Drawing deeply from their Southern landscapes, these short narrative films each touch upon unique elements of the Southern Gothic genre. Whether through supernatural tenors in rural churches, to improbable encounters with those who have long passed, these characters’ grappling with isolation, wildness, or rural histories are central elements to their stories. 

A broken woman’s search for solace lands her at a Black baptist church in Mississippi, where an eerie encounter leads her to unsettling truths.
