The film follows the story of four siblings who are suddenly orphaned after the death of their beloved father. Their mother, Corrine, takes them to live with their wealthy grandmother, Olivia, who banishes them to a secluded wing of the mansion.

As time passes, the siblings become close and rely on each other for comfort. Cathy and Chris, who are older, develop romantic feelings for each other. However, their forbidden love is discovered by Olivia, and she punishes them severely.
The children soon begin to uncover the dark secrets of their family's past, including the reason they are being kept locked up in the attic. They must overcome their oppressive environment and fight for their freedom before it's too late.
The movie stars Kiernan Shipka as Cathy, Mason Dye as Chris, Ellen Burstyn as Olivia, Heather Graham as Corrine, and Dylan Bruce as Bart Winslow, Corrine's lover.
