As she gives her report to the officer we have a few flashbacks (which we seem to get in a lot of movies these days), these then take us back to the start of what happened to Harper and while she was on a photography assignment in the woods of the Watchatoomy valley, while there she captures a disturbing event of a man being brutally whipped and beaten in the woods.

Apr 24, 2022 (Updated Apr 24, 2022)
It's a very slow paced , atmospheric Horror. The pace is rather tedious to the point it's not until the last 15 minutes that everything comes together and makes sense.
A couple of girls are left behind at a boarding school in a cold bleak February. Something sinister appears to be happening. Meanwhile another girl escapes a mental health hospital and makes her way to the School.
It's just far too slow with little happening until towards the very end. Also one of those endings that is frustrating making you think is that it? The story once you figure it out is interesting but it is badly done.
David McK (3562 KP) rated K-PAX (2001) in Movies

Drama film? Yep. Science Fiction? Possibly (probably).
But don't be thinking 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek' or even '2001: A Space Odyssey' - if anything, the closest correlation I can come up with is 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest'
Which might seem a bit odd, but consider: the bulk of this is set in an around a psychiatric hospital, where Kevin Spacey's main character Prot resides after claiming he is from the planet K-Pax, and after being arrested almost immediately after arriving in a train station at the start of the movie.
Jeff Bridges psychiatrist - who, initially, doesn't believe him (well, let's face it: would you?) then sets about uncovering the truth of Prot, digging into his (Prot's) past and uncovering some disturbing revelations.
So, yeah, a bit of an odd one, that largely relies on the charisma of it's two main lead actors.
