What happens

Seklusyon (lit. 'Seclusion') is a 2016 Filipino Gothic supernatural horror film co-produced and directed by Erik Matti. The film is under the production of Reality Entertainment. It stars Rhed Bustamante, Neil Ryan Sese, Ronnie Alonte, Lou Veloso, Phoebe Walker, Dominic Roque, Elora Españo, John Vic De Guzman, JR Versales, Jerry O'Hara, Sherry Lara and Teroy Guzman. The film follows a group of deacons who undergo a week of seclusion in a remote monastery, where a mysterious girl's supposed miracles test their faith and reveal hidden evils. The film is Erik Matti's third MMFF entry in recent years after his 2014 film Kubot: The Aswang Chronicles 2, and 2015 film Honor Thy Father which was the subject of controversy that year when it was disqualified from the "Best Picture" category of the festival's award. It is an official entry to the 2016 Metro Manila Film Festival, where it won 9 categories, including "Best Director" award for Erik Matti. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
