The Perished (2019)

In the heart of Ireland, Sarah Dekker grapples with the aftermath of a punishing pregnancy termination. Ostracized by her zealous religious family and abandoned by her remorseless boyfriend, she finds herself on a journey to healing, seeking refuge in the countryside home of a compassionate friend. However, the tranquil rural retreat masks a chilling secret; it rests atop a mass graveyard of forsaken infants, their yearning spirits trapped in a limbo of loss and confusion. These spectral innocents, desperate for rebirth, feed on guilt and remorse, yearning for the maternal love they were denied. Sarah, isolated and vulnerable, is oblivious to the haunting history of the place she seeks solace in. As the spirits sense her grief and loneliness, they perceive an opportunity. They need a mother, and in their relentless quest for reincarnation, they believe they've found one in Sarah. In this eerie narrative of recovery and redemption, "The Perished" paints a haunting tableau of guilt, regret, and the unnerving desire of lost souls to be born anew. Will Sarah succumb to the spirits' plaintive pleas, or will she conquer her past and banish the ghosts that seek her out? Her journey unfolds in this atmospheric drama where the lines between the living and the dead blur, and the echoes of the past refuse to be silenced.
