Dornan plays a doctor brought into investigate the mysterious circumstances of a near fatal fall the young Louis Drax suffered on his ninth birthday. The more he investigates, the more the boundaries of reality and fantasy begin to blur.
Speaking of the script, Aja said, "Max's script takes us on a very personal journey through the deep recesses of the mind, and on a suspenseful Hitchcockian ride. I was drawn to the poignant family drama and the supernatural elements, and am excited to bring this rich and complex story to life". Filming begins this October in Canada. Specifically Vancouver, British Columbia, meaning Dornan will feel right at home as this is where Fifty Shades of Grey was filmed.
