SYNOPSIS
Five carpoolers travel in an RV to reach a common destination. Night falls and to avoid an animal carcass they crash into a tree. When they regain consciousness they find themselves in the middle of nowhere. The road they were traveling on has disappeared; now there is only a dense and impenetrable wood and a wooden house in the middle of a clearing. They will soon discover that it is the home of an unmentionable cult. How did they get there? What really happened after the accident? Who are the masked creatures depicted on the paintings in the house? Will they be able to trust each other to try and get out of the nightmare they have been trapped in?

In 2017 Rainbow, the company leader in animation and kids contents with IP's such as Winx Club and others, acquired a majority stake in Iven creating therefore a media company active both in animation and live-action.
Colorado has produced more than 30 films, many of which were box-office hits ("When Mom Is Away" was the most watched film in the 2018/2019 film season, winning the Golden Ticket in December 2019) and can to be considered a leader in the production of comedies and, more recently, also in genre films thanks to the partnership with the writer and director Donato Carrisi. Colorados partners and customers include all major media companies in the country and abroad (RTI; Medusa; Warner Bros; Sky; Vision Distribution; Studio Canal eTF1, among others).
The company is also active in the development and production of TV series and entertainment shows, and with the comedy program "Colorado" it successfully celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the prime time broadcast.
