    • Synopsis
    • CORA (Amy Forsyth) has an ever expanding list of foods she’s allergic to and suffers from severe rashes. Frustrated by her search for answers among traditional doctors, she discovers a community of people who claim to forgo all physical nourishment. Founded by the charismatic JOANA (Susanne Wuest), Sun Haven offers salvation for others like Cora: being nourished by light itself. Drawn to this belief system, Cora joins this community and tries to transition to light as her sole nourishment. As she falls deeper down the rabbit hole and pursues Joana’s teachings, she must confront the darker underpinnings of her desire to abstain from food.
