Guardian Angel

Synopsis

Vic, a gentle custodian of a beautiful but vacant church, finds her peaceful routine disrupted when a property agent arrives to photograph the building for its impending sale. As she uncovers the unsettling truth about the new owners, Vic must confront the fate of the sacred space she holds dear.


Guardian Angel is a drama about faith, loss, and the pain of facing a changing world. A slow-burn, atmospheric piece that allows the audience to breathe in the story in the silent spaces.

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days.

Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her.
