Kevin Bacon and Theo Germaine star as the two main characters. Bacon stars as Owen Whistler, the owner of a conversion therapy camp.

Jordan comes to camp after making a deal with their parents that they would be legally emancipated after attending the camp.

While at the camp, Jordan and the other campers resist Whistler's "treatment". Soon, several murders lead the teens to investigate the camp's mysterious past and disturbing secrets.
