On a cold black-and-white night outside a monastery, a nun- Hester- sits bleeding after being bitten by a vampire. As she slowly transforms, she instructs Mary, a frightened novice nun who rushes to her aid, to burn her body if she dies so her soul may still reach heaven. As the fire roars around them, Hester attacks and bites Mary’s arm before Mary instinctively drives the stake back into Hester, killing her again. Mary collapses in agony as the world suddenly shifts from black-and-white into color, and she awakens transformed.

After a fight with his mom, a dysfunctional 16-year-old with a habit of biting is taken to an abusive, remote therapy program in the woods for troubled teens, where he is forced to confront his aggressive instincts to grow and find some semblance of inner peace.
