Eli

ELI (Charlie Shotwell) is a boy suffering from a rare autoimmune disorder. He must wear a hazmat suit when outside, and lives sealed off behind plastic when indoors to avoid being contaminated by the pollutants and allergens of the outside world. Desperate to find a cure for Eli, his parents rest their final and desperate hopes in Dr. Horn (Lili Taylor), who treats cases such as Eli’s in an old and remote mansion. Immediately upon arriving, Eli has nightmares and hallucinations that suggest that things in this treatment center aren’t all that they seem. At night, a tween girl neighbor named Haley (Sadie Sink) visits him outside his window, and confirms Eli’s suspicions that things aren’t right inside this house. As he undergoes his first and second treatments, Eli’s nightmarish visions only worsen, and when he discovers what he thinks happened to other kids with similar illnesses, Eli tries to escape while begging his parents to leave. But Eli’s parents have secrets of their own, and as Eli tries to convince them of Dr. Horn’s sinister actions, the actual truth is far more terrifying.
