Rene: We did this one ritual and the point of it was to confront death.
Oliver: You’d deliberately hurt yourself?
Rene: We tricked our brain into thinking we had died.

Rene is desperate to stop a cult leader getting out of prison. Together with Oliver, a cop, they seek out Sandra, an older, former cult member. Sandra remembers Rene as a little girl, with a different name – they were in the same cult. Sandra says that it wasn’t that bad. Will Sandra give up the evidence they need – and keep evil behind bars?
