In an effort to recover their failing channel and friendship, two urban explorers delve deep into the forests of northern England following a tip-off from a new subscriber. After crashing their drone on top of an abandoned facility, they are compelled to venture deeper. Blending cinematic filmmaking with raw found-footage immediacy, Joby Stephens’ feature directorial debut effortlessly unsettles and scares in equal measure, permeating the screen with a quiet horror that lingers well after viewing.
