The Reckoning
When the past resurfaces, the reckoning can no longer be escaped.
Plot Summary
When a former school class gathers for a reunion on a remote archipelago island in the winter of 2001, the party becomes the beginning of a night of paranoia and death. A storm intensifies, the ice lies treacherous, and no one can escape. As old memories and grievances resurface, the group begins to break apart from within.
The Reckoning is a parallel film to Final Reunion — the same place, the same night, but seen from another perspective. Through new eyes, a hidden story emerges in the shadows of the first: a tale of grief, obsession, and the darkness that has long waited to surface.
Here, questions left unanswered are finally addressed — who manipulated the events, why certain actions had to take place, and what deeper force drove the tragedy. At the same time, new mysteries arise, reshaping our understanding of what really happened.
The Reckoning is not a sequel, but a mirror movie. A story that allows the audience to relive the fateful night from a completely different angle — until the truth, step by step, becomes impossible to ignore.
