Lumberjack Man

In the quiet woods surrounding Good Friends Church Camp, the arrival of spring brings a promised celebration dubbed “Fun Under the Son.” The camp’s yearly retreat is a time for laughter, music, and the simple joy of a close‑knit community gathering under open skies. Yet the rustic charm of pine‑scented evenings and crackling campfires hints at an older, untamed rhythm that still pulses beneath the leaf‑covered trails.

Among the staff preparing the festivities are a mix of earnest volunteers and seasoned caretakers. Dr. Peter Shirtcliff, an outsider with a reputation for spotting trouble, arrives with warnings that feel out of place among the cheerful chatter. LuAnn Potts, the head park ranger, balances the practical demands of safety with the camp’s hopeful spirit. The younger crowd—teenagers eager for a break from school, the cook Reggie, and the ever‑reliable counselor Doug—bring energy that fuels the impending celebration, while Faith, a newcomer with quiet resolve, surveys the surroundings with a subtle wariness.

Beneath the lighthearted preparations, the forest holds a darker secret. A vengeful presence, born from the very timber that shelters the camp, stirs awake as the celebration draws near. Its emergence is tied to the ancient woods and threatens to turn the festive atmosphere into something far more unsettling. The looming threat is sensed in whispered rustles and shadowed glances, setting a tone that blends rustic camaraderie with a chilling, almost mythic dread.

The film lingers on the contrast between the camp’s hopeful optimism and the encroaching, unknowable danger of the wilderness. As the staff and campers navigate their roles, relationships form, doubts surface, and an uneasy anticipation hangs in the air. The story promises a tense dance between faith, tradition, and the primal forces that linger just beyond the campfire’s glow.
