When failed novelist Amos agrees to mind his friend's research station on a remote island for just one day, he expects solitude and a chance to break his writer's block. But when his friend fails to return, Amos discovers he has been deliberately trapped in a bizarre time loop. In a desperate attempt to escape "yesterday", Amos coaxes his ex-wife onto the island, but instead strands them both there. To ensure their own freedom, the two must scheme to invite their most dislikeable friends to the island, with unforeseen and messy consequences. A quirky dark comedy about second chances, petty revenge, and the ultimate importance of forgiveness.

In regional Victoria during the late nineteenth century, young nun Sister Maria is summoned to a remote homestead to provide spiritual guidance to a couple grieving a stillbirth. As she settles into the farm, she quickly senses a dark presence at play: the crops are blighted; the animals are perishing; and swarms of snakes plague the land. Her world is further upended when, while praying for the couple to conceive a new child, Maria instead finds herself pregnant. Believing this pregnancy might be the miracle they’ve hoped for, Maria agrees to give the child to the couple in exchange for their discretion and shelter. But, as the birth draws near and tensions rise, she grows increasingly fearful that she might be harbouring a malevolent force.
