Once every 100 years, a bay in Washington State fills with tiny luminescent creatures spawning eggs that will lie dormant for another century. A local Native American tribe, the Olloo<U+2019>et, have always respected this phenomenon and feared that the water - despite supposed miraculous healing qualities - produced frightening hallucinations and opened a portal to the spirit realm. Scientist Rachel Bell is eager to break from her sanctioned research team in order to do her own experiments, desperately hoping that the water will bring her relief from constant, debilitating pain. Fellow researcher John, an Olloo<U+2019>et descendant, warns her that she is on a dangerous path, but Rachel is too far under the water<U+2019>s spell. She draws in Harry, a local musician who suffers from a degenerative disease, and his estranged ex-wife. Tension mounts as the couple find themselves entwined in Rachel<U+2019>s machinations.
