Trapped in a world of encroaching darkness, Luke and Maya share a rare moment of vulnerability discussing their families before a supernatural threat forces them into a desperate fight for survival. They must rely on failing light sources to keep mysterious shadow entities at bay.
LUKE: Your son. Does he talk yet?
MAYA: He makes funny sounds. He can almost say mamma. I think he knows how to say cookie, too.
LUKE: All the important stuff.
MAYA: Sometimes he’ll point to a light and say lyy! Lyy! It’s almost light, but not really.
LUKE: Tiny toes.
MAYA: They call it Antrophony.
LUKE: I like tiny toes better.
