CHILDREN OF THE PINES tells the story of a young college student, Riley, who while visiting her estranged parents, learns they are partaking in supernatural healing for their family trauma.

As Riley attempts to reconnect with her family, she becomes increasingly unsettled after being introduced to mysterious children now living in her childhood home. Unknown to Riley, her high school ex-boyfriend, Gordon, resurfaces as a close family friend who also helps take care of the children living at the house. Glimpses into the past reveal unsettling truths, compelling Riley to confront the sinister reality of her family’s hidden plan for her to join them.

“Since starting this project at 17 years old, it’s been an amazing ride getting this feature developed and working alongside producers Lucas A. Ferrara and Danielle J. Bowman,” said filmmaker Joshua Morgan. “Over the last 4 years our crew has unwaveringly given their all to make this movie possible. We are more than excited to get CHILDREN OF THE PINES in front of audiences to hopefully offer a refreshingly thoughtful, disturbing, and eerie thriller.”
