Synopsis:
Jolene LeBoeuf, a prominent figure in the London art world, has defied the odds to craft a life of comfort and success for her children, Kayla (17) and Dylan (12), with her husband Alex.
Yet, her journey from the bustling streets of London traces back to humble beginnings in the Louisiana bayou. As a young girl, Jolene whiled away her days as a precocious child artist, finding solace in the company of her best friend, Boss, the alpha gator on her father's alligator farm.
However, tragedy struck when a Hurricane claimed her mother's life and thrust the family farm into hardship. Left grappling with loss and uncertainty, Jolene's father, Duke, made the difficult decision to relocate her to London to live with a relative.
Years have passed, but the scars of abandonment still linger. When Duke reaches out for a family reunion at their childhood home, Jolene's return reignites dormant fears and unresolved emotions. The once-familiar bayou now feels alien and menacing, stirring primal terrors within her.
As Jolene confronts the ghosts of her past, she unwittingly sets her family on a collision course with the traumas buried beneath the murky waters of the bayou. Amidst the shifting landscapes of both environment and emotion, they must navigate the treacherous terrain of their shared history and face the monsters lurking in the depths of the swamp.
