Three generations of Nina’s family gather for their annual retreat. This year, they are heading to the secluded countryside of Shropshire. It’s a time for laughter, indulgence, and playful rivalry—a tradition steeped in fond memories and family bonds. But this year, something feels different.
Amid the rolling hills and sprawling woods of their rented estate, tensions simmer beneath the surface. When a harmless evening of fun takes a sinister turn, the unthinkable happens, and someone doesn’t make it through the night.
As panic sets in, the family must make an impossible choice—call for help and risk shattering their carefully curated lives or bury the truth and live with the consequences. But secrets are like seeds, growing quickly in the fertile soil of lies. Trust begins to unravel, alliances shift, and paranoia spreads as each family member questions how far the others are willing to go to protect themselves.
They came to Shropshire for a retreat, but by the end of the week, they’ll leave with blood on their hands—and no way back to the lives they once knew.
Twisted and chilling, The Retreat is a psychological thriller that will leave you questioning the lengths people will go to protect their own—and just how far a family’s loyalty can stretch before it snaps.
