When art student Jacob moves to Elmbrook—the sleepy village where his mother grew up—he stumbles upon an old video camera that belonged to his late grandfather. To his shock, the device doesn’t just record the present; it captures footage from exactly one hour in the future. Set against a backdrop of eerie folklore, the locals whisper that a ghostly puma roams the woods, guarding only those deemed “worthy.” But their fragile peace shatters when a beloved villager vanishes without a trace. Armed with the impossible camera, Jacob and his crew begin chasing cryptic clues that drag them into the heart of Elmbrook’s darkest legends. What starts as a desperate search morphs into a chilling game of cat and mouse with a ruthless serial killer, whose bloody motives are tangled in secrets that refuse to stay buried. As the past and present collide, Jacob realizes the camera may be the only key to stopping a predator who has been waiting decades for revenge.
