Maurice Dumont is a nine year-old boy with an enduring connection between this world and the next. Propelled by unassailable grief over the death of Maurice’s twin brother Jacques at birth, his mother Marie falls under the occult influence of the enigmatic Madame Armand. With unrelenting pressure, she seduces Marie with the hope that the whole Dumont family will be reunited again by forcing Maurice to act as a medium to the afterlife. When Maurice suffers an unaccountable fever, Dr. Prevost becomes intrigued and fearful of the mysterious changes to Maurice’s body she is unable to explain or treat. As Jacques asserts himself through Maurice, and Maurice deteriorates, he comes to the realization that Jacques desires the same thing he does: the love and presence of their parents, only Jacques does not want to return to the world of the living, he wants his parents to join him in the afterlife.
