The film is set in a seemingly innocuous suburban garden under a dark canopy of trees. The plot follows a lone character (played by Richard Norton) as he tends the garden, completely unaware that he is being toyed with by unseen, malevolent, 'other-worldly' powers. The film builds tension through sound design (such as the incessant sound of garden shears), atmosphere, and careful camerawork. Concluding with a cryptic, 'genuine fright' of an ending that serves as a culmination of the simmering tension.
