On a decaying industrial moon, a family believes their missing child has miraculously returned, but as memory fractures and reality shifts, they must confront the emotional lies they rely on to survive, before truth tears them apart.
SYNOPSIS:
Set on the poisoned industrial moon of Nara-Teth, The Hallow Below follows Dhoren and Elyra Vahl, parents hardened by years of compromise and survival. When their child disappears near a toxic canal and later returns unharmed, the family accepts the miracle without question.
Subtle distortions begin to surface. Memories conflict. Conversations replay differently. The child responds only to emotional honesty and withdraws from denial. As the parents struggle to maintain stability, they realize the threat is not a creature beneath the canal, but a presence that dismantles the lies that have kept them functional.
As truth becomes impossible to contain, the family must decide what they are willing to lose to preserve themselves, and whether survival without illusion is possible at all.
