Adam and Amelia Wright's marriage is crumbling after ten years together. He's a successful screenwriter with prosopagnosia (face blindness) who can only identify his wife by her perfume, voice, and touch. She works at Battersea Dogs Home, feeling increasingly invisible in her husband's shadow. Their communication has deteriorated to functional exchanges about dinner and keys. As a last-ditch effort to save their marriage, they drive through a snowstorm to a remote converted chapel in the Scottish Highlands - a trip Amelia claims she won in a staff raffle. When they finally arrive at Blackwater Chapel after an arduous journey, the doors are mysteriously locked, then inexplicably open moments later. Their aging Labrador, Bob, growls at the building - something he never does. Inside, dozens of small mirrors reflect distorted versions of the couple, mounted stag skulls with white feathers adorn the walls, and doors slam shut behind them with no explanation. As the snowstorm worsens, what began as a romantic getaway transforms into a prison - and someone else seems to have the key.
