Albert and Devon retreat to a remote cabin to explore a connection sparked by a string of sexually charged messages on a dating app. Albert is a closeted husband struggling with the collapse of his heterosexual identity; Devon is a wounded soul who uses fleeting affairs with married men to shield himself from his past. As their bond deepens, reality begins to fracture. The forest won’t let them leave. The walls whisper with voices they’ve tried to forget. And the cabin itself seems alive, bending time and conjuring personal ghosts in physical form. Trapped in a metaphysical bubble, the men must confront the truths they’ve spent their lives avoiding... before the cabin consumes them both. Shadows of Willow Cabin blends queer romance with supernatural horror. A moody, intimate, and chilling film that unspools like a fever dream.
