Leave your troubled past behind and get a fresh start in the hidden enclave nestled in the French Pyrenees, where magic and witchcraft are woven into daily life. This remote region attracts a motley crew of people - including priestess Anaiya, sorcerer Uranie and chaos magician Iranon - who eschew modernity and try to transform from their former troubled personae, embracing the local occult-tinged faith. Former Hollywood filmmaker Richard Stanley finds himself in the region, too, after losing everything in the film industry, self-manifesting as a spiritual leader in the community. When shocking allegations of Stanley's past domestic abuse are brought into light, his local admirers must confront the true nature of their beloved chosen home. Is the region truly transformative or have they been ruthlessly manipulated by a false prophet?
