After her mother’s sudden death, Rebecca (Miley Locke) moves with her father (Johnny Harris) from the UK to Jerusalem, in the hopes that a new beginning will help her heal.

Settling into her grandfather’s old house in the Valley of the Ghosts, Rebecca befriends Rasha, a Palestinian girl only she can see. Is Rasha a figment of Rebecca’s imagination, or is she connected to the home’s troubled past?
