Amid the hardships of the 1930s Depression in Gippsland, Australia, the fortunes of a country baker and his family begin to improve-until they move into the doctor’s house.

Unprepared for the frightening events and dreams that soon befall the family, the baker senses an unseen presence is urging him to confront the shadows of the past-shadows that allude to unspeakable tragedies.

Cryptic messages and haunting dreams demand interpretation, yet the baker finds himself bewildered by this challenge. Enter a mysterious priest who offers much-needed guidance, though his motives remain shrouded in suspicion.

As the baker grapples with obscure riddles, and risks losing his family, he strives to rectify the past wrongs inflicted by others upon innocent people.

Even as the family relocates to different towns, the echoes of unresolved tragedies relentlessly pursue the baker, seeking closure. Ultimately, the complete truth comes to light, leading to a finale that resolves the suffering that began decades earlier.
