Five friends head out of the city for a carefree weekend in a rented house by the lake. It all begins with laughter, memories, and an attempt to forget their personal and family troubles. But the innocent getaway quickly turns into a nightmare: strange and terrifying events start to unfold, someone seems to be hunting them, and every attempt to escape leads nowhere. Beneath the fear, panic, and bloody chaos lies a secret no one expected - the betrayal comes not from outside, but from within. Evil was among them all along.
