The Shrine

“Once you find it, they won't let you leave.”

In a rural Polish village, a group of young journalists arrive to look into a cult said to practice human sacrifice. Marcus (Aaron Ashmore) and Carmen (Cindy Sampson) are hungry for a story big enough to matter, and they keep pushing after the locals warn them off. Jon Knautz shoots the village in a way that makes every quiet stretch feel like a held breath.
