Shortly after their first encounter, Louise meets Adele, David’s elegant but isolated wife, and the two women form a secret friendship. As Louise becomes embedded in their marriage, she discovers a dynamic defined by David’s rigid control and Adele’s intense private fears. The plot shifts from a standard domestic triangle into a supernatural thriller as Louise learns about the couple’s shared history and the practice of astral projection, leading to a confrontation where identities and physical boundaries are not what they appear.
