In early '90s Hollywood, aspiring film director Lisa Nova (Rosa Salazar) embarks on a supernatural revenge journey that spirals out of control. After her script is stolen by a producer who then casts her nemesis in the lead role, Lisa seeks magical help from a mysterious woman named Boro (Catherine Keener), who agrees to curse the thief but only if Lisa makes her a film first. As Lisa delves into dark magic and filmmaking, she begins experiencing disturbing hallucinations involving kittens and other unsettling imagery. Meanwhile, Boro manipulates Lisa for her own ends while Lisa's obsession with revenge grows more dangerous.
