Minnesota, 1990.

John is brought in for questioning, but to Kenner’s surprise he almost instantly confesses to molesting his daughter. Kenner, along with psychiatrist Kenneth Raines (Thewlis), dive into the memories of both father and daughter, and what they discover unmasks a disturbing and horrifying nationwide mystery…
