The film follows an Amish family of four who live peacefully in purposeful isolation. The children, Eva (Kiernan Shipka) and Zac (Timothée Chalamet), are able to teleport short distances, provided they can see where they are going. They use their powers for fun as they chase each other around the farm and drop into the lake. Their father, Daniel (Grant Bowler), is a stern disciplinarian who forbids them from using their powers as he believes them unnatural. His wife Elizabeth (Elizabeth Reaser) is extremely frail and he believes her illness is punishment for them using their powers.
