Ishmael 2010 / Ishmael 2010 /

After serving his time in jail for twelve years for the crime of murder, Ishmael is now a free man. Alone and confused, he decided to come back home to find peace and solitude in a place familiar to him. But his dream of rebuilding his shattered past is shaken when a mysterious innocent girl ends up in his front yard. The girl who is also running away from her own horrible past seeks the help of the ex-convict. Keeping his distance from the outside world to stay away from more trouble, Ishmael avoided the girl and leaves her all alone frightened and hurt. But just when he thought that he'd already run away from his own demons, Ishmael slowly discovers that the quiet town he once knew is no longer a safe place to stay. A powerful religious cult headed by an enigmatic leader only known as the ‟Ama‟ is running the town. Ishmael finds out that his connection with the girl would awaken his nightmares and violent past.
