In a close-knit Amish community, a prophecy appears to come true when six girls are born on June 6. The prophecy states that six girls will be born on the sixth day of the six month and that one of them will become the "Devil’s Hand" when she turns 18. Jacob Brown (Rufus Sewell), the father of one of the girls, manages to prevent the community's Elder Beacon (Colm Meaney) from killing them all, but one mother kills her daughter shortly after her birth and then takes her own life.
