The pressures of a new apartment, town, and job weigh heavily on Yamashita Rindo, but she refuses to allow anything pull her dream project down. Creating an educational outreach show for an exciting archaeological find, Rindo sets out to document a cave in the Japanese countryside alongside a small team of archeologists, determined to tell their stories. Strange and upsetting happenings begin to befall Rindo, and just as the project needs her most, terrors pull her away.
